interdisciplinary discussion. http://www.turing.org.uk/sources/wmays1.html

This document is a digital copy of the minutes of a meeting at Manchester

University. It shows Alan Turings interest in Artificial Intelligence before
everybody else.

This is a photograph that illustrates the textual description of the Bombe. This
helps clarify how large and complex the machine really is.

I did not directly cite these documents, but they helped clarify some of Turnings
concepts.

"What Von Neumann Knew of Turing in 1937-39." Letter to The Vice Chancellor of
Cambridge University. 1 June 1937. Turing.org. Web.

These documents are relevant to the question of what von Neumann knew of
Turing's work show how von Neumann could have drawn on Turing's ideas when
creating the MANIAC.

Entscheidungsproblem." Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society S242.1 (1937): 230-65. Print.
This is a digital copy of the original document that Alan Turing wrote detailing
how the Turing Machine worked and functioned.

I used this source to better understand the important events in the timeline of the

subjects life.
Gottfried, Ted. Alan Turing: The Architect of the Computer Age. New York: Franklin
Watts, 1996. Print.

I read parts of Ted Gottfrieds book to a detailed look at specific incidents in

Turings life and to examine how Turning founded the field of computer science
.
Hodges, Andrew. Alan Turing: The Enigma. New York: Simon and Schuster, 1983. Print.

I read parts of Andrew Hodges book to help me understand Alan Turings life.
This is the book that the recent movie was based on and it provided insight into
events leading up to the cracking of the Enigma machine.

Jackson, Joab. "How Alan Turing Set the Rules for Computing." Computerworld. 22 June
2012. Web. 16 Jan. 2016.

This is a news article for a computer website. It gave clear and concise
information showing how each event in Turings life led to a new discovery.

Leavitt, David. The Man Who Knew Too Much: Alan Turing and the Invention of the
Computer. New York: W.W. Norton, 2006. Print.

I read parts of this book to learn about Turings personal life. Although the

majority of the information wasnt relevant to my thesis it gave me insight into

his life.

This was a digital version of a print journal. This was a very useful site. It
provided many photographs and clear timelines to better understand the order of
events.

2012. Web. 20 Jan. 2016.

This digital journal gave a different insight into how Alan Turings work has
effected computer science today. It helped me connect the work from 70+ years
ago with current computers and helped understand the impact he had.
