    Extractions: Artificial Life Laboratory In the late 1940's John von Neumann began to work on what he intended as a comprehensive ``theory of [complex] automata''. He started to develop a book length manuscript on the subject in 1952. However, he put this aside in 1953, apparently due to pressure of other work. Due to his tragically early death in 1957, he was never to return to it. The draft manuscript was eventually edited, and combined for publication with some related lecture transcripts, by Burks [2] in 1966. It is clear from the time and effort which von Neumann invested in it that he considered this to be a very significant and substantial piece of work. However: subsequent commentators (beginning even with Burks) have found it surprisingly difficult to articulate this substance. Indeed, it has since been suggested that von Neumann's results in this area are either trivial, or, at the very least, could have been achieved by much simpler means. It is an enigma. In this paper I review the history of this debate (briefly) and then present my own attempt at resolving the issue by focusing on an analysis of von Neumann's

Manuel Blum is a professor at U.C. Berkeley. He was one of the inventors of the deterministic linear time selection algorithm . He won the Turing award, the ACM's highest honor, in 1995. His most recent research has been on methods for automatically checking the correctness of programs. O. Boruvka Boruvka's algorithm is one of three classical minimum-spanning tree algorithms. Robert Stephen Boyer now works with J. S. Moore on automatic theorem proving programs at U. Texas, Austin. The Boyer-Moore string matching algorithm is described in Baase, but I didn't say much about it in lecture. N. Christofides Christofides' heuristic approximates the minimum-length traveling salesman tour within a factor of 1.5. Edsger Wybe Dijkstra is Schlumberger Professor of Computer Science and Mathematics at U. Texas, Austin. He won the Turing award, the ACM's highest honor, in 1972. Dijkstra's algorithm finds shortest paths from a single source to all other vertices of a graph.

85. Vonneumann's First Computer Program
    Enter john von neumann. What most distinguished EDVAC from ENIAC is that it john von neumann s instructions were donated to the Library by Herman H.  
    http://www.amphilsoc.org/library/exhibits/treasures/vonneuma.htm
    
    Extractions: The first stored program for a computer Over the past decade, the popular press has periodically announced that as the atomic age has passed and the information ages dawned, the a-bomb has been replaced in our hearts and minds by the computer. In a remarkable feat of synchronicity, these two technological achievements , icons of modernity, were developed at nearly the same time, and for nearly the same reasons. Research and development of a practical electromechanical calculator was being carried out at a number of American laboratories by 1942, when John Mauchly of Philadelphia and a colleague, J. Presper Eckert, drew up a technical outline of a machine intended to perform the laborious calculations needed to calculate the trajectories of artillery shells and submitted it to the Ballistic Research Laboratory (BRL) of the Army. The government soon devoted its resources to developing what would become the computer, and organized a project supervised by J.G. Brained and appointing Lt. Herman H. Goldstine as technical liason for the BRL. The fruits of this first essay into modern computing was the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC), which was dedicated on February 15, 1946. Weighing in at over 30 tons, 150 feet in length, and consuming over 19,000 vacuum tubes, ENIAC was a giant, faster than any previous computer, able to perform fourteen 10-digit multiplications in a mere second - 500 times faster than the best mechanical calculators of the day. Despite its speed, however, it was hampered by highly limited in its internal memory and the need to rewire the computer manually for each separate program it was to run. Mauchly and Eckert had adopted such an inflexible design for ENIAC as a matter of expediency, given the demands of the wartime military, but they recognized that the inefficiency could be lessened by adopting serial calculation rather than parallel, and thus a new project, the Electronic Discrete Variable Computer (EDVAC) was born. Enter John Von Neumann.

    Extractions: 8 Glossary 1 Introduction This document intends to discuss our arguments related to the article of Burks et al. , John von Neumann and other scientists. I like to get comments and criticism to my view. I tried to formulate the arguments as unbiased as possible. In literature the paper of Burks et al. has been cited in order to show that in 1946 the John von Neumann?s group formulated the basic principles of the modern computer. From our view it is very questionable whether this is true because Konrad Zuse in 1936 and 1941 built the machines and , which deduct in advance the architecture of the John von Neumann computer in almost every component. These facts were neglected a very long time. More information about this topic can be found in the Konrad Zuse Multi-Media Show . This show is in German, but an English version is planned.

    Extractions: John von Neumann entwickelt das Konzept der Steuerung von Rechnern durch ein gespeichertes Programm und fasst die Grundprinzipien für Rechenanlagen zusammen. Die wesentlichen Aussagen sind: Das Programm wird gleichberechtigt zu den Daten im Rechner abgelegt. Das Programm ist eine Abfolge logischer Befehlsentscheidungen. Bedingte Programmbefehle erlauben Entscheidungen über den Fortgang des Programms. Die 5 Grundelemente von Allzweck-Rechnersystemen sind: Eingabe, um das Eingeben von Zahlen und Zeichen in die Maschine zu erlauben, Speicher, um als Gedächtnis für die Daten und Programmanweisungen zu dienen, arithmetische Einheit, um die anfallenden Berechnungen auszuführen, Leitwerk, um die Ausführung der Aufgabe nach Vorgabe eines Programmes zu steuern, Ausgabe, um den Benutzern die Ergebnisse der Berechnungen mitzuteilen. Von Neumann wurde auch durch seine schnellen elektronischen Computer bekannt; er entwarf 1952 den MANIAC I, den ersten Computer mit einem flexiblen Speicherprogramm. Bis zum Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts standen die Erfinder im Mittelpunkt der Entwicklung der Datenverarbeitung. Die Menge des Wissens über die Techniken der Datenverarbeitung wurde aber so umfangreich, dass ein Einzelner nicht mehr in der Lage sein konnte, alleine Neues zu schaffen. Es darf aber nicht angenommen werden, dass die Erfinder völlig selbständig gearbeitet haben. Viele der genannten Erfinder fanden die Unterstützung von Mitarbeitern einer Universätsfakultät oder eines Unternehmens. Ohne die - ungenannten - Mitarbeiter hätten die Ideen oft nicht verwirklicht werden können.

He was invited to the Ballistic Research Laboratory in 1937 as an eminent expert on shock waves. Being an emigrant Jew himself, he felt compelled to join the Manhattan Project aiming to combat Nazism. In 1945 he was appointed, and remained until the day of his death on 8 February 1957, manager of the Electronic Computer Project in Princeton. His interests turned toward the modelling of the nervous system and the human brain. He received considerable help from Herman Goldstine and J.

Se dedicó a la física porque afirmaba:     Ante todo, fue un lógico, que resolvía (según algún biógrafo) los problemas que se le planteaban de forma mortalmente fría y ordenada. En 1945, cuando se estaba seguro que las bombas nucleares iban a explotar, Johnny recibió el encargo de calcular la altura más conveniente para detonar la bomba. En este tipo de cálculos, se sentía a gusto.     Justo un año antes había publicado un volumen de más de 600 páginas sobre la "teoría de juegos". En ella se aplicaba la matemática a la economía. Descubrió que en el llamado juego de suma cero (lo que gana uno lo pierde el otro), hay una estrategia óptima para ganar. Tuvieron que pasar muchas décadas hasta que los economistas descubrieron que von Neumann había hecho para ellos "uno de los más grandes y provechosos trabajos de este siglo".
