At the forefront of discovery, where cutting-edge scientific questions are tackled, we often don't have much data. Conversely ...

Alan Turing, the 'Father of modern computing,' born on June 23, 1912, revolutionized technology with his Turing machine concept. His codebreaking during World War II significantly shortened the war.

Where linear models describe the fitted relationship between the target and input variables via the slope of that relationship (coefficient estimates), the same fitted relationship can be described ...

Although quantum computing is a nascent field, there are plenty of key moments that defined it over the last few decades as scientists strive to create machines that can solve impossible problems.

The search for a halting five-state Turing machine that performs more than 47,176,870 computational steps remained unsuccessful for several decades.

Researchers have demonstrated a new intelligent photonic sensing-computing chip that can process, transmit and reconstruct images of a scene within nanoseconds. This advance, published in Optica ...

In 1936, the British mathematician Alan Turing came up with an idea for a universal computer. It was a simple device: an infinite strip of tape covered in zeros and ones, together with a machine that ...

In computer science and blockchain technology, the term “Turing completeness” describes a system’s ability to carry out any computation that a Turing machine is capable of. A Turing machine ...

How this Turing Award–winning researcher became a legendary academic advisor Theoretical computer scientist Manuel Blum has guided generations of graduate students into fruitful careers in the ...
