Alan M. Turing
Alan M. Turing
In the short time Alan M. Turing was alive he accomplished more for the field computer science than any other one person. To honor Turing the Association for Computing Machinery (the ACM) established the ?Turing Award? in 1966 and is given annually to an individual for his or her outstanding contribution for the science of computing. Turing?s personal life was troubling for him partly because of his homosexuality but mostly because aptitude for science and mathematics left him with little time for a personal life. Turing had quite an impressive education including time at Cambridge, Princeton University. His work began postgraduate. So, his anxiousness to begin a serious career could easily be seen. Turing?s mathematical skill also played an important part in bringing World War Two to an end. He has published papers that are now celebrated in the field of mathematics and computing. For this I consider Alan M. Turing to have accomplished more for the field of computer science than any other one person.
Alan Turing was born June 23,1912 to Julius Mathison and Ethel Sara Turing in London, England. Ethel Sara Turing was married from the family Stoney. The Stoneys were a family of scientific distinction.
