Alan Turing, London, Bletchley Park and Manchester, England, UK
Like a lot of tech geeks, I'm a fan of Alan Turing and his pioneering contributions to computer science and artificial intelligence. So much so that on three different trips to the United Kingdom I made a point of visiting sites related to Turing and his work.
Turing was born in London. During World War II his work at the Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley Park resulting in Bombe, an electromechanical computing device that could break the Nazi's Enigma-coded messages. Some have estimated that the work at Bletchley Park may have shortened World War II by as much as two years and saved 14 million lives.
After the war Turing returned to London for a time where he worked at the National Physical Laboratory on the design of his Automatic Computing Engine.
By 1948 he was working at what is now the University of Manchester, becoming the deputy director of its Computing Machinery Laboraty. There he continued his work in computing as well as mathematics and mathematical biology.
Turing was gay at a time when homosexuality was illegal in the UK. That led to his 1952 conviction of gross indecency and the loss of his security clearance. He also underwent so-called chemical castration following his conviction.
Turing died on June 8, 1954 from cyanide poisoning, ruled a suicide at the time, although some question that ruling.
In August 2014 Queen Elizabeth II pronounced that Alan Turing has been pardoned.

Unique collection of letters from Alan Turing found at Manchester
A lost and unique collection of letters and correspondence from the late Alan Turing has been found in an old filing cabinet in a storeroom at the University of Manchester.
The file’s content, which potentially hasn’t seen the light of day for at least 30 years, dates from early 1949 until Turing’s death in June 1954.

Alan Turing | Who Is He? | London History
Hello there, I'm Oliver Briggs and in this video I ask the question, who is Alan Turing and what did he do?
Learn about his early life at a boarding school in dorset to his death in 1954.
Computer scientist and pioneer - Turing was a great figure indeed with an inspirational story for all!
He's the new face of the £50 - and is certainly deserving of it!

#TheMemorium - A tribute to Alan Turing
As a tribute to Alan Turing, the Father of Computing on his death anniversary, we have made an online memorial in his honor. Let us celebrate the genius who laid the foundations of modern computing. Leave a free gift here:
Britain pardons Alan Turing
Alan Turing, British mathematician who is widely considered to be the father of computer science, received a pardon under the Royal Prerogative of Mercy by the Queen, following a court order to be chemically castrated as punishment for homosexuality.
Britain has pardoned Turing, who was the code breaker key to winning WWII and inventor of the Turing machine, which can be considered as a model of a general purpose computer. Turing was convicted for gross indecency in 1952 following his relationship with another man. Turing committed suicide in 1954 after ingesting cyanide. Turing made vast contributions to the scientific and mathematical fields, but the Briton is perhaps best known as the code breaker who cracked the Enigma code, the cipher used by Nazi Germany to secure its military communications. Turing's efforts gave the Allies an advantage and helped them to emerge victorious in the second world war.

Transcript:
1. Alan Mathison Turing OBE FRS was an English computer scientist, mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst and theoretical biologist.
2. He was highly influential in the development of theoretical computer science, providing a formalisation of the concepts of algorithm and computation with the Turing machine, which can be considered a model of a general purpose computer.
3. Turing is widely considered to be the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence.
4. During the Second World War, Turing worked for the Government Code and Cypher School at Bletchley Park, Britain's codebreaking centre.
5. For a time he led Hut 8, the section responsible for German naval cryptanalysis.
6. He devised a number of techniques for speeding the breaking of German ciphers, including improvements to the pre-war Polish bombe method, an electromechanical machine that could find settings for the Enigma machine.
7. Turing played a pivotal role in cracking intercepted coded messages that enabled the Allies to defeat the Nazis in many crucial engagements, including the Battle of the Atlantic; it has been estimated that this work shortened the war in Europe by more than two years and saved over fourteen million lives.
8. After the war, he worked at the National Physical Laboratory, where he designed the ACE, among the first designs for a stored-program computer.
9. In 1948 Turing joined Max Newman's Computing Machine Laboratory at the Victoria University of Manchester, where he helped develop the Manchester computers and became interested in mathematical biology.
10. He wrote a paper on the chemical basis of morphogenesis, and predicted oscillating chemical reactions such as the Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction, first observed in the 1960s.

Thousands Of UK Gay Men To Be Pardoned À La Alan Turing
Following on from the 2013 exoneration of celebrated World War Two codebreaker Alan Turing, Britain is to pardon thousands of gay and bisexual men who were convicted of crimes under sexual offense laws which have now been abolished.
Homosexual acts were not decriminalized in England until 1967. In addition, aligning with the law governing heterosexuals, it was not until 2001 that the age of consent for homosexuals was reduced to 16.
Lord John Sharkey has been pushing the government to issue pardons, He said some 65,000 men had been convicted under the now-repealed laws. 15,000 of those men are still alive.
The government said anyone who had been found guilty of consensual homosexual sex would have their names cleared. For those still living, the offences would be removed from any criminal record checks via a disregard process.
