- Title
The man behind the machine.
- Authors
Hodges, Andrew
- Abstract
The author discusses the long recognition on the achievements of Alan Mathison Turing, founder of computer science. He mentions that the major published papers of Turing on artificial intelligence and computability are some of the most noted in the scientific literature, but they give a yawning gap. He states that Turing never placed into journals the simple claim that he had figured out how to turn his universal machine in 1936 into the 1945 practical electronic computer.
