But for Alan Turing and his young assistant Donald Bayley, it was just another day in a secluded laboratory in the English countryside. They briefly stepped away from their benches and cables, taking ...

At the time, Max Newman was head of the Computing Machine Laboratory at Manchester University. Turing, his deputy, was a genius mathematician, now considered by the scientific community to be the ...

After September 1939, joined by other mathematicians at Bletchley Park, Turing rapidly developed a new machine (the ‘Bombe ... a position at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), where ...

A mathematical model of computation. Named after English scientist Alan Turing, a Turing machine is a finite state machine that reads a tape divided into cells. The Turing machine examines the ...

After the war, Turing turned his thoughts to the development of a machine that would logically process information. He worked first for the National Physical Laboratory (1945-1948). His plans were ...
