Alan Turing papers on code breaking released by GCHQ

by Laura Domela

Two 70-year-old papers by Alan Turing on the theory of code breaking have been released by the government’s communications headquarters, GCHQ.

It is believed Turing wrote the papers while at Bletchley Park working on breaking German Enigma codes.

A GCHQ mathematician said the fact that the contents had been restricted “shows what a tremendous importance it has in the foundations of our subject”.

It comes amid celebrations to mark the centenary of Turing’s birth.

The two papers are now available to view at the National Archives at Kew, west London.

GCHQ was able to approximately date the papers because in one example Turing had made reference to Hitler’s age.

Introduction to the i.MX 93 Applications Processor Family

Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and NXP Semiconductors

Robust security, insured product longevity, and low power consumption are critical design considerations of edge computing applications. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with Srikanth Jagannathan from NXP about the benefits of the i.MX 93 application processor family from NXP can bring to your next edge computing application. They investigate the details of the edgelock secure enclave, the energy flex architecture and arm Cortex-A55 core of this solution, and how they can help you launch your next edge computing design.
