IBM has a machine that can understand spoken words and talk back.

The body is a heat machine, and 20 to 25 guests can easily double your cooling load.

A BTU is a unit of heat, and the BTU rating of a conditioner refers to how much heat your machine can pump out of your house in an hour.

A man can be an effective fighting machine throughout the incubation period of most infectious diseases.

But as long as you can have treatment from my machine you have nothing to worry about.

But the machine quack can cause far more than just suffering.

But humans can do something equally useful, in the case of certain enumerably infinite sets: They can give explicit instructions for determining the nth member of the set, for arbitrary finite n. Such instructions are to be given quite explicitly, in a form in which they could be followed by a computing machine, or by a human who is capable of carrying out only very elementary operations on symbols.

that any procedure which could " naturally " be called effective, can in fact be realized by a ( simple ) machine.

Gurevich: "... Turing's informal argument in favor of his thesis justifies a stronger thesis: every algorithm can be simulated by a Turing machine ... according to Savage, an algorithm is a computational process defined by a Turing machine ".

There is a wide variety of representations possible and one can express a given Turing machine program as a sequence of machine tables ( see more at finite state machine, state transition table and control table ), as flowcharts ( see more at state diagram ), or as a form of rudimentary machine code or assembly code called " sets of quadruples " ( see more at Turing machine ).

Representations of algorithms can be classed into three accepted levels of Turing machine description:

He was highly influential in the development of computer science, giving a formalisation of the concepts of " algorithm " and " computation " with the Turing machine, which can be considered a model of a general purpose computer.

Whenever any result is sought by its aid, the question will then arise — By what course of calculation can these results be arrived at by the machine in the shortest time?

This can be mitigated somewhat by insistence on using CNAME records indicating service rather than actual machine names to refer to the service, but there is no way of guaranteeing that users will follow such a convention.

All of these can be done manually or can be automated into a machine.

Some of this knowledge is in the form of facts that can be explicitly represented, but some knowledge is unconscious and closely tied to the human body: for example, the machine may need to understand how an ocean makes one feel to accurately translate a specific metaphor in the text.

This extreme growth can be exploited to show that f, which is obviously computable on a machine with infinite memory such as a Turing machine and so is a computable function, grows faster than any primitive recursive function and is therefore not primitive recursive.

The machine would also be able to punch numbers onto cards to be read in later.

Henry also proposed building a demonstration version of the full engine, with a smaller storage capacity: " perhaps for a first machine ten ( columns ) would do, with fifteen wheels in each ".

See also the list of Acorn Electron games for a fairly comprehensive list of games published for the machine and: Category: BBC Micro and Acorn Electron games for a list of games with information on Wikipedia.

* the uniform cost model, also called uniform-cost measurement ( and similar variations ), assigns a constant cost to every machine operation, regardless of the size of the numbers involved

* the logarithmic cost model, also called logarithmic-cost measurement ( and variations thereof ), assigns a cost to every machine operation proportional to the number of bits involved

Later the British also developed a version of the Mk. VI light tank armed with 4 machine guns that was known as Light Tank AA Mk. I.

An accumulator machine, also called a 1-operand machine, or a CPU with accumulator-based architecture, is a kind of CPU where, although it may have several registers, the CPU mostly stores the results of calculations in one special register, typically called " the accumulator ".

The German leadership had also been criticized for failing to understand the technical advances of the First World War, having given tank production the lowest priority and having conducted no studies of the machine gun prior to that war.

It also marked the beginning of the shift in Manço's sound characterized with the heavy use of synthesizers and drum machine in contrast with his older works consisting of a group oriented rock based sound.

Software may also be written in an assembly language, essentially, a mnemonic representation of a machine language using a natural language alphabet.

When machine translation ( also known as mechanical translation ) failed to yield accurate translations right away, automated processing of human languages was recognized as far more complex than had originally been assumed.

Bayesian models, often drawn from machine learning, are also gaining popularity.

They also suspect that the Continuity IRA arsenal contains some weapons that were taken from Provisional IRA arms dumps, including a few dozen rifles, machine guns, and pistols ; a small amount of the explosive Semtex ; and a few dozen detonators.

It can also compile Lisp code to machine code via a C compiler.

This last term (" von Neumann machine ") is less specific and also refers to a completely unrelated computer architecture proposed by von Neumann, so its use is discouraged where accuracy is important.

Computationally, a context-sensitive language is equivalent with a linear bounded nondeterministic Turing machine, also called a linear bounded automaton.

This set of languages is also known as NLIN-SPACE, because they can be accepted using linear space on a non-deterministic Turing machine.

" Firearms classified as machine guns are also not subject to the barrel length restriction.

Informally the Church – Turing thesis states that if some method ( algorithm ) exists to carry out a calculation, then the same calculation can also be carried out by a Turing machine ( as well as by a recursively definable function, and by a λ-function ).

All stops have disabled access, raised paving, CCTV, a Passenger Help Point, a Passenger Information Display ( PID ), litter bins, a ticket machine, a noticeboard and lamp-posts, and most also have seats and a shelter.

Then codenamed " Stella ," the machine was also set to utilize cartridges ; after seeing the Channel F, Atari realized they needed to release it before the market was flooded with cartridge-based machines.

The first ( retroactively ) RISC-labeled processor ( IBM 801-IBMs Watson Research Center, mid-1970s ) was a tightly pipelined simple machine originally intended to be used as an internal microcode kernel, or engine, in CISC designs, but also became the processor that introduced the RISC idea to a somewhat larger public.

Simplicity and regularity also in the visible instruction set would make it easier to implement overlapping processor stages ( pipelining ) at the machine code level ( i. e. the level seen by compilers.

At MIT, Olsen and Anderson noticed something odd: students would line up for hours to get a turn to use the stripped-down TX-0, while largely ignoring a faster IBM machine that was also available.
