'''Connection Machine''',<br/>
a series of supercomputers that grew out of [[Mathematician#Hillis|Danny Hillis']] doctoral research at [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology|MIT]] in the early 1980s on alternatives to the traditional [[Von Neumann Architecture|von Neumann architecture]] of computation, originally intended for applications in [[Artificial Intelligence|artificial intelligence]] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_computation symbolic computation]. The Connection Machine was manufacturered since 1983 by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thinking_Machines_Corporation Thinking Machines Corporation] (TMC), founded by [[Mathematician#Hillis|Danny Hillis ]] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheryl_Handler Sheryl Handler] <ref> [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connection_Machine Connection Machine from Wikipedia]</ref>.
