Alan Turing's Other Universal Machine.
The article discusses the Automatic Computing Engine (ACE), a stored program computer proposed by the computer scientist Alan Turing in 1946, examining its design and influence. The author examines the ACE's use of mercury delay-line memory, optimum programming, and multiple registers. The article d...

The author examines the ACE's use of mercury delay-line memory, optimum programming, and multiple registers. The article discusses the importance of ACE derivatives such as the English Electric Company's DEUCE and the Bendix Aviation Corporation's Bendix G-15 and argues that ACE influenced computer design. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Opinion src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2012 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
