A working Turing Machine was submitted to Lego Ideas, consisting of approximately 2,900 parts and a bucketload of extreme cleverness.… The original machine was devised by mathematician Alan Turing in ...

<B>Why did you think of this?</B> To some extent, I'm masochistic. Recently I've been working on a paper that involves TMs and I wrote a small simulator to check my solutions. I'm bored; therefore, we ...

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 ...

Vice reports that scientists have created the first known “chemical Turing machine,” meaning a liquid that can do the calculations that define a classic computer science standard. Juan Pérez-Mercader ...

Turing machines were first proposed by British mathematician Alan Turing in 1936, and are a theoretical mathematical model of what it means for a system to "be a computer." At a high level, these ...
