The role of Alan Turing in the history of computing Alan Mathison Turing was born on 23 June 1912‚ Paddington‚ London. He was a true pioneer in computer science and if it were not for this man‚ no one would probably be typing an essay based on him on a modern computer. He is renowned for his passion of mathematics and the invention of the Turing machine/test‚ breaking the German enigma code during World War One‚ and for making the first automated computing machine (the ACE). At an early age

The Enigma could produce 17‚576 different ways to position the rotors‚ and a few million million ways to position the plugboard cables (Callahan‚ 10). As a result‚ the most configurations a Enigma could make were 7‚905‚853‚580‚625 (Callahan‚ 11). The overwhelming possibilities created much worry and anxiety for the

Svetlozar Simeonov 09/25/11 Wankel Rotary Engine – Huge Power in a Small Box According to Philip’s Encyclopedia Wankel rotary engine or just Wankel engine is “Internal combustion engine with rotors instead of pistons.” That not so popular engine is actually about two times lighter than a four cylinder piston engine‚ the one that we all have in our cars‚ for the same power output. It also has four times less moving parts. Much simpler‚ much lighter‚ much smaller it has numerous advantages

burned. In the wave –disk design‚ the power generating process takes place inside a spinning turbine. It eliminates pistons and is only the size of a cooking pot. Engineers began studying wave-rotor machines as early as 1906 and they are already used in superchargers in some sports cars‚ nonetheless wave-rotor technology could be rather difficult to implement due to the highly complex unsteady gas flows‚ but the effort would pay off since this reduce mass and very high efficiency engine could propel

The wired code wheel‚ known more commonly as a rotor‚ would be shaped similar to a hockey puck made of non-conductive material‚ such as rubber‚ and have two sides‚ an input plate and an output plate and around the circumference are 26 evenly spaced electrical contacts. The 26 contacts on the input plate would be connected by wired through the body of the rotor to the 26 contacts on the output plate. An alphabet ring would then be placed around the rotors 26 contacts therefore creating a cipher alphabet

The wattmeter is an electrodynamic instrument for measuring the electric power or the supply rate of electrical energy of any given circuit. The device consists of a pair of fixed coils‚ known as current coils‚ and a movable coil known as the potential coil. The current coils are connected in series with the circuit‚ while the potential coil is connected in parallel. Also‚ on analog wattmeters‚ the potential coil carries a needle that moves over a scale to indicate the measurement. A current flowing
