Alan Turing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alan Mathison Turing , OBE , FRS ( / ˈ tj ʊər ɪ ŋ / TEWR -ing ; 23 June 1912 – 7 June 1954), was an English mathematician , logician , cryptanalyst , and computer scientist . He was highly influential in the development of computer science , providing a formalisation of the concepts of " algorithm " and "computation" with the Turing machine , which played a significant role in the creation of the modern computer. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Turing is widely considered to be the father of computer science and artificial intelligence . [ 3 ] During the Second World War , Turing worked for the Government Code and Cypher School (GCCS) at Bletchley Park , Britain's codebreaking centre. For a time he was 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 .

In addition to being emperor, Hadrian was a humanist and was philhellene in all his tastes. He was the third of the so-called Five Good Emperors . Hadrian was born Publius Aelius Hadrianus to an ethnically Italian family in Italica near Seville.
Artificial intelligence ( AI ) is the intelligence of machines and the branch of computer science that aims to create it. AI textbooks define the field as "the study and design of intelligent agents" [ 1 ] where an intelligent agent is a system that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chances of success. [ 2 ] John McCarthy , who coined the term in 1956, [ 3 ] defines it as "the science and engineering of making intelligent machines." [ 4 ] AI research is highly technical and specialized, deeply divided into subfields that often fail to communicate with each other. [ 5 ] Subfields have grown up around particular institutions, the work of individual researchers, the solution of specific problems and the application of widely differing tools.
