The Turing Machine on the Dissecting Table
Teorie vědy, 2013 THE TURING MACHINE ON THE DISSECTING TABLE Abstract: Since the beginning of the twenty-first century there has been an increasing awareness that software rep- resents a blind spot in new media theory.

A quantum-information-theoretic complement to a general-relativistic implementation of a beyond-Turing computer [PDF]
, 2014 There exists a growing literature on the so-called physical Church-Turing thesis in a relativistic spacetime setting. The physical Church-Turing thesis is the conjecture that no computing device that is physically realizable (even in principle) can ...

An Analogue-Digital Model of Computation: Turing Machines with Physical Oracles [PDF]
, 2016 We introduce an abstract analogue-digital model of computation that couples Turing machines to oracles that are physical processes. Since any oracle has the potential to boost the computational power of a Turing machine, the effect on the power of the ...

On the Proper Treatment of Dynamics in Cognitive Science
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract This essay examines the relevance of dynamical ideas for cognitive science. On its own, the mere mathematical idea of a dynamical system is too weak to serve as a scientific theory of anything, and dynamical approaches within cognitive science are too rich and varied to be subsumed under a single “dynamical hypothesis.” Instead, after first ...

Turing Machine Approach To Runtime Software Adaptation
Computer Science, 2014 In this paper, the problem of applying changes to software at runtime is considered. The computability theory is used in order to develop a more general and programming-language-independent model of computation with support for runtime changes.

Quasi-Delay-Insensitive Circuits are Turing-Complete [PDF]
, 1995 Quasi-delay-insensitive (QDI) circuits are those whose correct operation does not depend on the delays of operators or wires, except for certain wires that form isochronic forks.

Local Search and the Evolution of World Models
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Generating Turing Machines by Use of Other Computation Models [PDF]
Computer Science, 2003 For each problem that can be solved there exists algorithm, which can be described with a program of Turing machine. Because this is very simple model programs tend to be very complicated and hard to analyse by human.

Computer als Modelle des Geistes
Österreichische Zeitschrift für Geschichtswissenschaften, 2008 The article considers the complexities of thinking about the computer as a model of the mind. It examines the computer as being a model of the brain in several very different senses of ‚model‘.

On Halting Process of Quantum Turing Machine
, 2003 We prove that there is no algorithm to tell whether an arbitrarily constructed Quantum Turing Machine has same time steps for different branches of computation. We, hence, can not avoid the notion of halting to be probabilistic in Quantum Turing Machine.
