The Essential Turing
Alan Turing
On 23 September 1936 Turing left England on a vessel bound for New York. His destination was Princeton University, where the Mathematics Department and the Institute for Advanced Study combined to make Princeton a leading centre for mathematics. Turing had applied unsuccessfully for a Visiting Fellowship to Princeton in the spring of 1935. When a year later he learned of Church’s work at Princeton on the Entscheidungsproblem, which paralleled his own (see ‘Computable Numbers: A Guide’), Turing ‘decided quite definitely’ to go there. He planned to stay for a year. In mid-1937 the offer of a Visiting Fellowship for the next academic year persuaded him to prolong his visit, and he embarked on a Ph.D. thesis. Already advanced in his academic career, Turing was an unusual graduate student (in the autumn of 1937, he himself was appointed by Cambridge University to examine a Ph.D. thesis). By October 1937 Turing was looking forward to his thesis being ‘done by about Christmas’. It took jus...
Logicians are usually philosophically or mathematically minded. Why, then, would they be so interested in problems that belong to computer science, like the explication of the notions of algorithm, effective procedure, and suchlike? The reason for their interest is presumably this. Such problems are interdisciplinary, and modern mathematics, logic and analytic philosophy have much in common, going hand in hand. For instance, the classical decision problem (Entscheidungsproblem) was tremendously popular among logicians. Kurt Gödel, for one, worked on it. Thus I first provide in Section 1 a brief summary of Gödel’s famous incompleteness results. In the summary I use a current technical vernacular. That is, I use terms like ‘algorithm’, ‘effective procedure’, ‘recursive axiomatization’, etc. These terms were not used in the time when Gödel was pursuing his research on (un)decidability, because the study of these modern notions was triggered, inter alia, just by Gödel’s incompleteness r...

Turing historical article of 1936 is the result of a special endeavor focused around the factuality of a general process for algorithmic computation. The Turing machine as a universal feasibility test for computing procedures is applied up to closely examining what are considered to be the limits of computation itself. In this regard he claims to have defined a number which is not computable, arguing that there can be no machine computing the diagonal on the enumeration of the computable sequences. This article closely examines the original 1936 argument, displaying how it cannot be considered a demontration, and that there is indeed no evidence of such a defined number that is not computable.

The twenty-first century is the era when populations of cities will exceed rural communities for the first time in human history. The population growth of cities in many countries, including those in transition from planned to market economies, is putting considerable strain on ecological and natural resources. This paper examines four central issues: (a) the challenges and opportunities presented through working in jurisdictions where there are no official or established methods in place to guide regional, ecological and landscape planning and design; (b) the experience of the author’s practice—Gillespies LLP—in addressing these challenges using techniques and methods inspired by McHarg in Design with Nature in the Russian Federation in the first decade of the twenty-first century; (c) the augmentation of methods derived from Design with Nature in reference to innovations in technology since its publication and the contribution that the art of landscape painters can make to landscape analysis and interpretation; and (d) the application of this experience to the international competition and colloquium for the expansion of Moscow. The text concludes with a comment on how the application of this learning and methodological development to landscape and ecological planning and design was judged to be a central tenant of the winning design. Finally, a concluding section reflects on lessons learned and conclusions drawn.

In the sole extended break from his life and varied career in England, Alan Turing spent the years 1936-1938 doing graduate work at Princeton University under the direction of Alonzo Church, the doyen of American logicians. Those two years sufficed for him to complete a thesis and obtain the Ph.D. The results of the thesis were published in ...

Turing's vision of "constructive systems of logic for practical use" has become reality: in the twenty-first century, automated "formal methods" are now routine. Presented here in its original form, this fascinating thesis is one of the key documents in the history of mathematics and computer science. (source: Nielsen Book Data)
