Beyond the universal Turing machine
Australasian Journal of Philosophy 77 (1):46-67 (1999)
Abstract
We describe an emerging field, that of nonclassical computability and nonclassical computing machinery. According to the nonclassicist, the set of well-defined computations is not exhausted by the computations that can be carried out by a Turing machine. We provide an overview of the field and a philosophical defence of its foundationsAuthor's Profile
