Alan Turing Year 2012

The Alan Turing Year, 2012, marks the celebration of the life and scientific influence of Alan Turing on the occasion of the centenary of his birth on 23 June 1912. Turing had an important influence on computing, computer science, artificial intelligence, developmental biology, and the mathematical theory of computability and made important contributions to code-breaking during the Second World War.
The international impact of Turing's work is reflected in the list of countries with planned celebrations for Alan Turing Year, including: Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, China, Czech Republic, France, Germany, India, Israel, Italy, Netherlands, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Philippines, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, U.K. and the U.S.A.
A number of major events took place throughout the year. Many of these were linked to places with special significance in Turing’s life, such as Cambridge University, the University of Manchester, Bletchley Park and Princeton University. Here we try to give a chronological overview of Turing related scientific events that took place throughout 2012, as well as the Turing related presentations given at those events.
