This paper describes the development of special-purpose computer systems for Ising models, "Ising Machine" m-TIS 1 and 2. The first two sections explain Ising models and their Monte Carlo simulations. In section 3 and 4, I describe my motivation to build a special-purpose computer and the development of m-TIS 1. In section 5 and 6, the use of field-programmable gate arrays in a special-purpose computer is discussed. In the last two sections I discuss the potential abilities and future prospects of both Ising machine and a special-purpose computer in general.
