This subclass includes the manufacture and/or assembly of electronic computers, personal computers, notebook computers, computer servers, peripherals such as memory, input and output devices (printers, monitors, keyboards). Computers can be analog, digital or hybrid. General-purpose digital computers are devices that store programs, data, data processing programs and software packages that meet user requirements, perform arithmetic and other operations specified by the user that do not require user intervention, process programs, when the computer provides logical solutions during controlled processing. Analog computers can simulate mathematical models or at least perform analog control and programming of elements.
