Although Turing dissociated himself from the project in 1947, and Womersley left the NPL in 1950, the NPL’s Electronic Division completed the Pilot ACE computer in 1951 [10]. This machine is remembered for its unique design and excellent performance, but Womersley has received little credit for this achievement, often being dismissed as a second-rate mathematician who did not effectively lead the project he had started.","PeriodicalId":55033,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Annals of the History of Computing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142269616","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
