Alan Turing, the father of modern computing, has been commemorated in a special interactive Google doodle that simulates the theoretical Turing machine that Turing proposed in a mathematical paper.

Alan Turing and John von Neumann saw it early: the logic of life and the logic of code may be one and the same.

On Saturday, British mathematician Alan Turing would have turned 100 years old. It is barely fathomable to think that none of the computing power surrounding us today was around when he was born. But ...

The Busy Beaver Challenge, a notoriously difficult question in theoretical computer science, is now producing answers so large they’re impossible to write out using standard mathematical notation.

On June 23, we commemorate the birth of Alan Mathison Turing, a visionary whose profound contributions laid the very groundwork for modern computing and artificial intelligence. Often hailed as the ...

Alan Turing’s seminal paper Computing Machinery and Intelligence, The University of Manchester now sits at the centre of a ...

Alan Turing, considered to be one of the fathers of computer science whose code-breaking work helped the Allies win the Second World War, has been given a royal pardon for his homosexuality conviction ...

The winners of the 2018 Turing Award have been named as Yoshua Bengio, Geoffrey Hinton and Yann LeCun. Some of the greatest minds in computer science have seen their work recognised as hugely ...
