De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
'Alan Mathison Turing', OBE, FRS () (23 June 1912
– 7 June 1954) was an English mathematician, logician and cryptographer.
Turing is often considered to be the father of modern computer science. He
provided an influential formalisation of the concept of the algorithm and
computation with the Turing machine. With the Turing test, meanwhile, he made a
significant and characteristically provocative contribution to the debate
regarding artificial intelligence: whether it will ever be possible to say that
a machine is conscious and can think. He later worked at the National Physical
Laboratory, creating one of the first designs for a stored-program computer, the
ACE, although it was never actually built in its full form. In 1948, he moved to
the University of Manchester to work on the Manchester Mark 1, then emerging as
one of the world's earliest true computers.
During the Second World War, Turing worked at Bletchley Park, the UK's
codebreaking centre, and was for a time head of Hut 8, the section responsible
for German naval cryptanalysis. He devised a number of techniques for breaking
German ciphers, including the method of the bombe, an electromechanical machine
that could find settings for the Enigma machine.
Turing was gay, living in an era when homosexuality was still both illegal and
officially considered a mental illness. Subsequent to his being outed, he was
criminally prosecuted, which essentially ended his career. He died not long
after, under what some believe were ambiguous circumstances.
