TURING MACHINES AND V. NEUMANN ARCHITECTURE





In this Post I will compare the V. Neumann architecture and the Turing Machines. I watched 3 videos before doing this post. The first one and the second one were about Turing Machine (explanations) and the third one was called: How a CPU works. The last one I mentioned was about a simulatio of V. Neumann´s architecture. I have made a Mind Map explaining the two before mentioned concepts. On one hand we have the Turing Machine, which is a theorical device. And on the other hand we have the V. Neumann architecture, which is a real Computer system. Just in case you didn´t understood the Mind Map, and for adding more specific Information I will add some images with explanations. And I will compare the two main Concepts mentioned.




Make your own mind maps with Mindomo.


Turing Machines and V. Neumann architecture have many similaritys. I will mention them now.
  • Input and Output
  • CPU / Read-Write head
  • Memory (RAM) / Tape
  • Computer Program / Program Book
  • Binary "Launguage


This is how a CPU works (simplified explanation).

This is how the Turing Machine works with 1 & 0 (simplified explanation).
