Alan Turing

CWI and UvA have organised the exhibition "Turing's Heritage" at Science Park Amsterdam, which is open until the end of November. Exhibits include an Enigma machine (Turing played a vital role in breaking the codes of this German encryption device during World War II) and a Turing machine made of Lego. The exhibition will be open for the general public on Sunday, November 25.

At the end of this Turing year Prof. Dr. Paul Klint, one of the organisers of the exhibition and a lecturer at AUC, will be interviewed in Labyrint, the science programme of the VPRO. The programme will explain the basic ideas of computability and algorithms and explore the implications of Turing's ideas for current and future computers. The interview (in Dutch) will be aired on 5 December, 20.55, Nederland 2.
