Abstract

This paper describes our experiences in incorporating a brief discussion of simple computations powered by water into the standard Computer Organization course. We describe our goals in introducing this concept to students, our methods for doing so, and our subsequent experiences in building a working 1-bit half-adder powered by water. We also describe a set of videos and Flash animations that can be used by others who wish to quickly demonstrate water based computations to their students via the world wide web.
