Summary[edit]

Description
English: Thomas De Greeve passes the torch to Qiang Shen on the outskirts of Aberystwyth. For the end of this leg of the relay, see File:2012-olympic-torch-shen-to-williams.JPG 2012 marks the 100th anniversary of the birth on Alan Turing, the founder of computer science and a figurehead for the code breaking efforts of WWII. Alan Turing is widely known for his role in developing computing methods for code breaking in WWII, but this is only a small part of his truly inspiring work. He created one of the first designs for a stored-program computer and laid the foundations for the field of Artificial Intelligence. These achievements led to the computerised era we live in today, and prepared the way for the robotics research being carried out at Aberystwyth University. Professor Shen, as a leading researcher in Computational Intelligence and ambassador for computer science, was chosen as a tribute to Alan Turing, and an inspiration to future generations of scientists and engineers.
