Search MAA Online MAA Home Devlin's Angle December 2003 John von Neumann: The Father of the Modern Computer Later this month (28th December) marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of John von Neumann, the Hungarian born American mathematician who, among his many accomplishments, was the originator of the basic principle of computer design known as the "von Neumann architecture." Von Neumann computers are the ancestors of today's desktop and laptop PCs. The principal feature of a von Neumann computer is that the program and any data are both stored together, usually in a slow-to-access storage medium such as a hard disk, and transferred as required to a faster, and more volatile storage medium (RAM) for execution or processing by a central processing unit (CPU). Since this how practically all present day computers work, the term "von Neumann architecture" is rarely used now, but it was in common parlance in the computing profession through to the early 1970s. When von Neumann proposed this architecture in 1945, it was a radical idea. Prior to then, programs were viewed as essentially part of the machine, and hence different from the data the machine operated on. A common approach was to input the program by some physical means, such as wiring a plugboard, and then feeding in the data for the program to act upon. In 1945, in his first draft of a report on the EDVAC [a planned successor machine to the ENIAC, one of the first American computers], von Neumann proposed the stored program concept. The idea grew out of discussions he had with several other computer pioneers, among them J. Presper Eckert, John Mauchly, Arthur Burks, and Hermann Goldstine, who were working on plans for the EDVAC. What was to become known as the von Neumann architecture was subsequently spelled out more fully in a 1946 paper, written by von Neumann, Burks and Goldstine, titled "Preliminary Discussion of the Logical Design of an Electronic Computing Instrument."

Von Neumann, John Original name JOHANN VON NEUMANN (b. Dec. 3, 1903, Budapest, Hung. Feb. 8, 1957, Washington, D.C., U.S.), German-American mathematician who made important contributions in quantum physics, logic, meteorology, and computer science. His theory of games had a significant influence upon economics. Von Neumann was privatdocent (lecturer) at Berlin in 1926-29 and at the University of Hamburg in 1929-30. During this time he worked mainly on quantum physics and operator theory. Largely because of his work, quantum physics and operator theory can be viewed as two aspects of the same subject. In 1930 von Neumann was visiting lecturer at Princeton University; he was appointed professor in 1931. In 1932 he gave a precise formulation and proof of the "ergodic hypothesis" of statistical mathematics. His book on quantum mechanics, The Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, published in 1932, remains a standard treatment of the subject. In 1933 he became a professor at the newly founded Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, keeping that position for the rest of his life. Meanwhile, he turned his attention to the challenge made in 1900 by a German mathematician, David Hilbert (q.v.), who proposed 23 basic theoretical problems for 20th-century mathematical research. Von Neumann solved a special case of Hilbert's fifth problem, the case of compact groups. In the second half of the 1930s the main part of von Neumann's publications, written partly in collaboration with F.J. Murray, was on "rings of operators" (now called Neumann algebras). Of all his work, these concepts will quite probably be remembered the longest. Currently it is one of the most powerful tools in the study of quantum physics. An important outgrowth of rings of operators is "continuous geometry." Von Neumann saw that what really determines the character of the dimensional structure of a space is the group of rotations that the structure allows. The groups of rotations associated with rings of operators make possible the description of space with continuously varying dimensions.

A child prodigy who could solve almost any mathematical problem, he had a quick mind and a near photographic memory, for which he was famous throughout his life. Indeed, he later went on to design the fastest thinking machine of his age: the world's first stored-program electronic digital computer. Von Neumann's abilities did not end there. Having made invaluable contributions to the development of atomic and hydrogen bombs, game theory and intercontinental ballistic missiles, he became the foremost defence intellectual of his time. He also applied his mastery of mathematics to the logical and rigorous interpretation of quantum mechanics, the development of statistical explanations of atomic behaviour, and to the creation of the modern computer program. With Robert Oppenheimer, Albert Einstein and other supernovae in the scientific firmament, von Neumann made the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton a model for the modern think tank. He later applied that model to the Rand Corporation and dozens of government panels on which he served. But unlike other US scientists who had contributed to the war effort, he retained his links with military programmes until his death in 1957.

1945 AD Von Neumann writes the "First Draft" In June 1944, the Hungarian- American mathematician Johann (John) Von Neumann first became aware of ENIAC Von Neumann, who was a consultant on the Manhattan Project , immediately recognized the role that could be played by a computer like ENIAC in solving the vast arrays of complex equations involved in designing atomic weapons. John von Neumann a A brilliant mathematician, Von Neumann crossed mathematics with subjects such as philosophy in ways that had never previously been conceived; for example, he was a pioneer of Game Theory , which continues to find numerous and diverse applications to this day. Von Neumann was tremendously excited by ENIAC and quickly became a consultant to both the ENIAC and EDVAC projects. In June 1945, he published a paper entitled "First Draft of a report to the EDVAC," in which he presented all of the basic elements of a stored-program computer: A memory containing both data and instructions. Also to allow both data and instruction memory locations to be read from, and written to, in any desired order. A calculating unit capable of performing both arithmetic and logical operations on the data.

I like to get comments and criticism to my view. I tried to formulate the arguments as unbiased as possible. In literature the paper of Burks et al. has been cited in order to show that in 1946 the John von Neumann?s group formulated the basic principles of the modern computer. From our view it is very questionable whether this is true because Konrad Zuse in 1936 and 1941 built the machines and , which deduct in advance the architecture of the John von Neumann computer in almost every component. These facts were neglected a very long time. More information about this topic can be found in the Konrad Zuse Multi-Media Show . This show is in German, but an English version is planned.

Dublin City University Research Institute for Networks and Communications Engineering Artificial Life Laboratory Technical Report Number: bmcm-2000-01 Abstract: In the late 1940's John von Neumann began to work on what he intended as a comprehensive ``theory of [complex] automata''. He started to develop a book length manuscript on the subject in 1952. However, he put this aside in 1953, apparently due to pressure of other work. Due to his tragically early death in 1957, he was never to return to it. The draft manuscript was eventually edited, and combined for publication with some related lecture transcripts, by Burks (1966) . It is clear from the time and effort which von Neumann invested in it that he considered this to be a very significant and substantial piece of work. However: subsequent commentators (beginning even with Burks) have found it surprisingly difficult to articulate this substance. Indeed, it has since been suggested that von Neumann's results in this area are either trivial, or, at the very least, could have been achieved by much simpler means. It is an enigma. In this paper I review the history of this debate (briefly) and then present my own attempt at resolving the issue by focusing on an analysis of von Neumann's

John von Neumann (1903-1957) Table of Contents Claim to Fame Research/Career Highlights Trivia Bibliography Claim to Fame John von Neumann was truly one of the most well rounded and versatile scholars of the 20 th century. His works crossed many areas of study and he is recognized for his essential contributions to mathematics, quantum physics, logic, meteorology, computer science and economics. His mathematical work on high-speed calculations for H-bomb development contributed to the development of computers, and he also introduced game theory (1944), which was a major influence on economics. John von Neumann was born Dec. 3, 1903 as Johann von Neumann in Budapest Hungary. Von Neumann was recognized as a child prodigy in mathematics. At the age of eight he was able to divide eight digit numbers in his head and was known to amuse family members by reciting memorized lists of facts and figures. He attended the University of Budapest from 1921-25, receiving a diploma in Chemical Engineering. He continued to study in both Berlin and Zurich and completed his doctoral degree in mathematics in 1928. Return to Table of Contents Research/Career Highlights During this politically chaotic time in central Europe, von Neumann accepted an offer to study at Princeton University in the United States in 1930. He quickly gained a reputation in set theory, algebra, and quantum mechanics. In 1932 he gave a precise formulation and proof of the "
