                        1. A piece of hardware that encapsulates some function but cant be
                          used without some kind of front end. Today we have,
                          especially, print engine: the guts of
                          a laser printer. 2. An analogous piece of software; notionally, one that does a lot
                          of noisy crunching, such as a database

                          the modern connotation of power-transducing machinery in Charles Babbages
                          time, which explains why he named the stored-program computer that he
                          designed in 1844 the Analytical
                          Engine.
