What is hard computing?
Hard computing is a traditional computing. It requires a precisely stated analytical model and usually a lot of computation time. It strictly follows known steps to solve a task as opposed to soft computing which is heuristic.
The term, hard computing, was coined by Dr Lotfi Zadeh. Here ‘hard’ has nothing to do with hardware.
The principles of hard computing are precision, certainty and rigor.
Hard computing is achieved using sequential programs that use binary logic. It is deterministic in nature. The input data should be exact and the output will be precise and verifiable.
