- W66857009 abstract "Part I of 'Alan Turing, Father of the Modern Computer' provides an overview of Turing's many major contributions to the development of the computer and computing—including his pioneering work in the areas now called Artificial Intelligence and Artificial Life.Part II tells the story of Turing's ACE. This is simply one of the best tales in the history of computers. Right from the start there was a mismatch of visions. Turing saw himself as building 'a brain'. 'In working on the ACE', he said, 'I am more interested in the possibility of producing models of the action of the brain than in the practical applications to computing'. Turing's employers, on the other hand, thought the ACE would be Britain's national computer: a single machine that could satisfy the computing needs of 'the whole country'. Frustration and disappointment dominate the story. Woolly-minded administrators wasted the brilliant technological achievements of Turing and his group. There is a happy ending—but by that time Turing had turned his back on the ACE forever. Much of Part II is in the words of the original protagonists, drawn from documents of the time. (These and other historic documents are now available online in The Turing Archive for the History of Computing.)Part III of 'Alan Turing, Father of the Modern Computer' is a digital facsimile of 'Proposed Electronic Calculator', Turing's 48-page report describing his revolutionary electronic computing machine. Turing's original illustrations are included. (A paper version of the report is available in the book Alan Turing's Automatic Computing Engine.)" @default.
