This work built on the Boolean algebra developed by George Boole and an analysis of logic by Augustus De Morgan which these mathematicians published nearly simultaneously in 1847.

Boolean algebra is a division of mathematics that deals with operations on logical values and incorporates binary variables.

In the 1930s, Boolean Algebra was applied to the first electrical circuits that would one day become our modern computers.

His concepts, developed over the past century by other mathematicians but still known as "Boolean algebra," form the underpinnings of computer hardware, driving the circuits on computer chips.

Boolean algebra, and other forms of abstract propositional logic, are based on dealing with compound propositions made up of simple propositions joined by logical connectors like "and", "or", and ...

To demonstrate that they worked in a programmable logic array, the memristor grid was programmed to perform a Boolean sum-of-product operation.

Augustus De MorganAnniversary: He was a pioneering British mathematician and logician whose contributions laid the foundation for modern symbolic logic and algebra. His legacy continues to ...

Mathematician George Boole died 150 years ago. Boolean logic, the system he invented, is still used in modern computer programming, writes Chris Stokel-Walker. Boole walked two miles to the ...

Here we describe a strategy for efficiently assembling synthetic genetic circuits that use recombinases to implement Boolean logic functions with stable DNA-encoded memory of events.
