In computer science, a universal Turing machine (UTM) is a Turing machine that can simulate an arbitrary Turing machine on arbitrary input. The universal machine essentially achieves this by reading both the description of the machine to be simulated as well as the input to that machine from its own tape. Alan Turing introduced the idea of such a machine in 1936–1937. This principle is considered to be the origin of the idea of a stored-program computer used by John von Neumann in 1946 for the "Electronic Computing Instrument" that now bears von Neumann's name: the von Neumann architecture. In terms of computational complexity, a multi-tape universal Turing machine need only be slower by logarithmic factor compared to the machines it simulates. (Wikipedia).
Turing Machines and The Halting Problem (Part 2)
The Halting Problem has fascinated thousands of computer scientists from around the world. A major part of Computing Logic, the proof of the halting problem proves that computers can't do everything. Check out the video to learn more about why computers work the way they do! For Turing Ma

Turing Machines & The Halting Problem (Part 1)
In the year 1900, David Hilbert gave a list of 23 mathematics problems for the mathematicians of the new generation. His tenth problem proved to be an enigma for many years until Alan Turing solved it while simultaneously creating the modern computer. Watch the video to see how Alan Turi

Campaign for the Turing Tenner
This year is the centenary of the birth of Alan Turing. Turing was a mathematician, father of computer science, and WWII code breaker. To celebrate his life there is a campaign to put a picture of Turing on the back of the next ten pound note. This would be amazing if it happened. UK citiz
