Turing’s Legacy

Congratulations are in order to those who analysed the satellite data and appear to have shown that the ill-fated Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 has crashed into the Southern Indian Ocean, as reported here on the BBC.

Over sixty years ago, Alan Turing was involved in using one of the first general purpose computers to solve the problems of the Comet airliner. The recent Alan Turing exhibition is reviewed here.

Computing has only shown us the hors d’oeuvre. The main course will be spectacular. Unless of course politicians decide that analysing data should not be allowed or made downright difficult.
