A mathematical model of computation. Named after English scientist Alan Turing, a Turing machine is a finite state machine that reads a tape divided into cells. The Turing machine examines the symbol ...

A proof made public today illustrates that Stephen Wolfram's 2,3 Turing machine number 596440 is a universal Turing machine, and it has netted a University of Birmingham undergraduate $25,000. In 1936 ...

Today’s Google Doodle is a working Turing machine that contains six puzzles. Sophia Foster-Dimino, Jered Wierzbicki, Corrie Scalisi, and Marcin Wichary on Google’s Doodle team built the app in honor ...

One of the problems with a classic Turing machine is the tape must be infinitely long. [Mark’s] Turing Ring still doesn’t have an infinite tape, but it does make it circular to save space. That along ...

The Puma 480L handles parts up to 80.4-in. long. The Puma 480 and the Top- Turn S50 are two turning machines that easily handle the big stuff. The Puma 480 accomodates parts to 25.6 in. in diameter ...

CNC Software’s MasterCAM Swiss Expert allows programmers greater freedom to access the variety of five-axis capabilities now available in Swiss turning machines. The development of CNC machines is ...

Everything about this Turing machine is absolutely brilliant. A Turing machine uses a strip of material to record, calculate, and change data. [Mike Davey] built this one using servo motors, a ...
