Alan Turing’s Delilah Project During the war, Turing realized that cryptology’s new frontier was going to be the encryption ...

When the German military surrendered unconditionally on 8 May 1945, many in Britain savored the first taste of peace. But for Alan Turing and his young assistant Donald Bayley, it was just another day ...

With regard to my previous blog on a One-bit processor and a mega-cool Turing machine, I’ve been bouncing around the Internet discovering all sorts of cool things… But before we hurl ourselves ...

For something that has been around since the 1930s and is so foundational to computer science, you’d think that the Turing machine, an abstraction for mechanical computation, would be easily ...

When he invented Turing machines in 1936, Alan Turing also invented modern computing. In 1928, the German mathematicians David Hilbert and Wilhelm Ackermann proposed a question called the ...

Turing machines are widely believed to be universal, in the sense that any computation done by any system can also be done by a Turing machine. In a new article, researchers present their work ...
