The machine operates on an infinite memory tape divided into discrete "cells". The machine positions its "head" over a cell and "reads" or "scans" the symbol there. Then, as per the symbol and the machine's own present state in a "finite table" of user-specified instructions, the machine (i) writes a symbol (e.g., a digit or a letter from a finite alphabet) in the cell (some models allow symbol erasure or no writing), then (ii) either moves the tape one cell left or right (some models allow no motion, some models move the head), then (iii) (as determined by the observed symbol and the machine's own state in the table) either proceeds to a subsequent instruction or halts the computation.

! Final m-configuration<br />(Turing state)
+
The Turing machine was invented in 1936 by Alan Turing, who called it an "a-machine" (automatic machine). With this model, Turing was able to answer two questions in the negative: (1) does a machine exist that can determine whether any arbitrary machine on its tape is "circular" (e.g., freezes, or fails to continue its computational task); similarly, (2) does a machine exist that can determine whether any arbitrary machine on its tape ever prints a given symbol. Thus by providing a mathematical description of a very simple device capable of arbitrary computations, he was able to prove properties of computation in general—and in particular, the uncomputability of the Entscheidungsproblem ('decision problem').

The Turing machine mathematically models a machine that mechanically operates on a tape.  On this tape are symbols, which the machine can read and write, one at a time, using a tape head. Operation is fully determined by a finite set of elementary instructions such as "in state 42, if the symbol seen is 0, write a 1; if the symbol seen is 1, change into state 17; in state 17, if the symbol seen is 0, write a 1 and change to state 6;" etc. In the original article ("On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem", see also references below), Turing imagines not a mechanism, but a person whom he calls the "computer", who executes these deterministic mechanical rules slavishly (or as Turing puts it, "in a desultory manner").

{{quote|...an unlimited memory capacity obtained in the form of an infinite tape marked out into squares, on each of which a symbol could be printed. At any moment there is one symbol in the machine; it is called the scanned symbol. The machine can alter the scanned symbol, and its behavior is in part determined by that symbol, but the symbols on the tape elsewhere do not affect the behavior of the machine. However, the tape can be moved back and forth through the machine, this being one of the elementary operations of the machine. Any symbol on the tape may therefore eventually have an innings.<ref>See the definition of "[[wikt:innings|innings]]" on [[Wiktionary]]</ref>|Turing 1948, p. 3<ref>

The Turing machine mathematically models a machine that mechanically operates on a tape.  On this tape are symbols, which the machine can read and write, one at a time, using a tape head. Operation is fully determined by a finite set of elementary instructions such as "in state 42, if the symbol seen is 0, write a 1; if the symbol seen is 1, change into state 17; in state 17, if the symbol seen is 0, write a 1 and change to state 6;" etc. In the original article ("[[On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem]]", see also [[#The Entscheidungsproblem (the "decision problem"): Hilbert's tenth question of 1900|references below]]), Turing imagines not a mechanism, but a person whom he calls the "computer", who executes these deterministic mechanical rules slavishly (or as Turing puts it, "in a desultory manner").

The alphabet contains a special blank symbol (here written as '0') and one or more other symbols.

When executed, the machine will either halt with some string remaining on the tape, or continue executing forever. If it halts, the final values on the tape are regarded as the output. A variant of the Turing machine has an accept state and a reject state which both halt the machine, and the sole output is which of those states the machine ends up on (or it may never halt). This variant can effectively output a longer string by taking in an integer that tells it which bit of the string to output.

Definitions in literature sometimes differ slightly, to make arguments or proofs easier or clearer, but this is always done in such a way that the resulting machine has the same computational power. For example, the set could be changed from <math>\{L,R\}</math> to <math>\{L,R,N\}</math>, where N ("None" or "No-operation") would allow the machine to stay on the same tape cell instead of moving left or right. This would not increase the machine's computational power.

* The tape can be finite, and automatically extended with blanks as needed (which is closest to the mathematical definition), but it is more common to think of it as stretching infinitely at one or both ends and being pre-filled with blanks except on the explicitly given finite fragment the tape head is on.  (This is, of course, not implementable in practice.)  The tape ''cannot'' be fixed in length, since that would not correspond to the given definition and would seriously limit the range of computations the machine can perform to those of a [[linear bounded automaton]] if the tape was proportional to the input size, or [[finite state machine]] if it was strictly fixed-length.

The word "state" used in context of Turing machines can be a source of confusion, as it can mean two things. Most commentators after Turing have used "state" to mean the name/designator of the current instruction to be performed—i.e. the contents of the state register. But Turing (1936) made a strong distinction between a record of what he called the machine's "m-configuration", and the machine's (or person's) "state of progress" through the computation - the current state of the total system. What Turing called "the state formula" includes both the current instruction and all the symbols on the tape:
     −
在图灵机上下文中使用的“状态”这个词可能会引起混淆，因为它可能意味着两件事。图灵之后的大多数评论员都使用“ state”来表示当前要执行的指令的名称/指示器ーー即。国家登记册的内容。但是图灵(1936)在他所谓的机器“ m 配置”的记录和机器(或个人)通过计算的“进展状态”——整个系统的当前状态——之间做出了很大的区别。图灵所说的“状态公式”包括当前指令和磁带上的所有符号:

For the remainder of this article "definition 1" (the Turing/Davis convention) will be used.

! 5-tuples

Earlier in his paper Turing carried this even further: he gives an example where he placed a symbol of the current "m-configuration"—the instruction's label—beneath the scanned square, together with all the symbols on the tape (The Undecidable, p.&nbsp;121); this he calls "the complete configuration" (The Undecidable, p.&nbsp;118). To print the "complete configuration" on one line, he places the state-label/m-configuration to the left of the scanned symbol.
+
!5元组
   −
在论文的前面，图灵进一步阐述了这个观点: 他举了一个例子，他把当前“ m 配置”(指令的标签)的一个符号和磁带上的所有符号(无法判定，第121页)放在了扫描的正方形下面，他称之为“完整配置”(无法判定，第118页)。为了在一行上打印“完整配置” ，他将 state-label/m-configuration 放在扫描符号的左侧。

A variant of this is seen in Kleene (1952) where Kleene shows how to write the Gödel number of a machine's "situation": he places the "m-configuration" symbol q<sub>4</sub> over the scanned square in roughly the center of the 6 non-blank squares on the tape (see the Turing-tape figure in this article) and puts it to the right of the scanned square. But Kleene refers to "q<sub>4</sub>" itself as "the machine state" (Kleene, p.&nbsp;374-375). Hopcroft and Ullman call this composite the "instantaneous description" and follow the Turing convention of putting the "current state" (instruction-label, m-configuration) to the left of the scanned symbol (p.&nbsp;149).
+
|-
   −
在 Kleene (1952年) ，Kleene 展示了如何写出机器“状态”的哥德尔数: 他将“ m 配置”符号 q < sub > 4 </sub > 放置在磁带上6个非空白方块的中心，并将其放置在被扫描方块的右侧。但 Kleene 将“ q < sub > 4 </sub > ”本身称为“机器状态”(Kleene，p. 374-375)。霍普克罗夫特和乌尔曼称这种组合为“瞬时描述” ，并遵循图灵约定，将“当前状态”(指令-标签，m-配置)放在扫描符号的左侧(第149页)。

In the following table, Turing's original model allowed only the first three lines that he called N1, N2, N3 (cf. Turing in The Undecidable, p.&nbsp;126). He allowed for erasure of the "scanned square" by naming a 0th symbol S<sub>0</sub> = "erase" or "blank", etc. However, he did not allow for non-printing, so every instruction-line includes "print symbol S<sub>k</sub>" or "erase" (cf. footnote 12 in Post (1947), The Undecidable, p.&nbsp;300). The abbreviations are Turing's (The Undecidable, p.&nbsp;119). Subsequent to Turing's original paper in 1936–1937, machine-models have allowed all nine possible types of five-tuples:

On the far right is the Turing "complete configuration" (Kleene "situation"<!-- Stuation? Not Situation? Is that the right word? Yes, it is, cf. page 375 for example "The Godel number of the stiuation..." and then he shows a tape, etc. This usage runs throughout the chapter. wvbailey~~~~ --><!--So is it "stuation" or "stiuation"?-->, Hopcroft–Ullman "instantaneous description") at each step. If the machine were to be stopped and cleared to blank both the "state register" and entire tape, these "configurations" could be used to rekindle a computation anywhere in its progress (cf.

Many machines that might be thought to have more computational capability than a simple universal Turing machine can be shown to have no more power (Hopcroft and Ullman p.&nbsp;159, cf. Minsky (1967)). They might compute faster, perhaps, or use less memory, or their instruction set might be smaller, but they cannot compute more powerfully (i.e. more mathematical functions).

A Turing machine is equivalent to a single-stack pushdown automaton (PDA) that has been made more flexible and concise by relaxing the last-in-first-out requirement of its stack. In addition, a Turing machine is also equivalent to a two-stack PDA with standard last-in-first-out semantics, by using one stack to model the tape left of the head and the other stack for the tape to the right.

An interesting question is whether the computation model represented by concrete programming languages is Turing equivalent. While the computation of a real computer is based on finite states and thus not capable to simulate a Turing machine, programming languages themselves do not necessarily have this limitation. Kirner et al., 2009 have shown that among the general-purpose programming languages some are Turing complete while others are not. For example, ANSI C is not Turing-equivalent, as all instantiations of ANSI C (different instantiations are possible as the standard deliberately leaves certain behaviour undefined for legacy reasons) imply a finite-space memory. This is because the size of memory reference data types, called pointers, is accessible inside the language. However, other programming languages like Pascal do not have this feature, which allows them to be Turing complete in principle.

一个有趣的问题是，用具体的编程语言表示的计算模型是否是图灵等价的。虽然真实计算机的计算是基于有限状态的，因此不能模拟图灵机，但是编程语言本身并不一定有这个限制。Kirner 等人在2009年的研究表明，在通用编程语言中，有些是图灵完备语言，而有些则不是。例如，ANSI c 不是图灵等效的，因为 ANSI c 的所有实例化(不同的实例化是可能的，因为标准由于遗留原因故意不定义某些行为)意味着有限的空间内存。这是因为内存引用数据类型(称为指针)的大小可以在语言中访问。然而，其他编程语言，比如 Pascal 没有这个特性，这使得它们原则上可以是图灵完整的。

Each proof will then be determined by a sequence of choices i<sub>1</sub>, i<sub>2</sub>, ..., i<sub>n</sub> (i<sub>1</sub> = 0 or 1, i<sub>2</sub> = 0 or 1, ..., i<sub>n</sub> = 0 or 1), and hence the number 2<sup>n</sup> + i<sub>1</sub>2<sup>n-1</sup> + i<sub>2</sub>2<sup>n-2</sup> + ... +i<sub>n</sub> completely determines the proof.

It is often said that Turing machines, unlike simpler automata, are as powerful as real machines, and are able to execute any operation that a real program can. What is neglected in this statement is that, because a real machine can only have a finite number of configurations, this "real machine" is really nothing but a finite state machine. On the other hand, Turing machines are equivalent to machines that have an unlimited amount of storage space for their computations.

Anything a real computer can compute, a Turing machine can also compute. For example: "A Turing machine can simulate any type of subroutine found in programming languages, including recursive procedures and any of the known parameter-passing mechanisms" (Hopcroft and Ullman p.&nbsp;157). A large enough FSA can also model any real computer, disregarding IO. Thus, a statement about the limitations of Turing machines will also apply to real computers.

Descriptions of real machine programs using simpler abstract models are often much more complex than descriptions using Turing machines. For example, a Turing machine describing an algorithm may have a few hundred states, while the equivalent deterministic finite automaton (DFA) on a given real machine has quadrillions. This makes the DFA representation infeasible to analyze.

Turing machines describe algorithms independent of how much memory they use. There is a limit to the memory possessed by any current machine, but this limit can rise arbitrarily in time. Turing machines allow us to make statements about algorithms which will (theoretically) hold forever, regardless of advances in conventional computing machine architecture.

A limitation of Turing machines is that they do not model the strengths of a particular arrangement well. For instance, modern stored-program computers are actually instances of a more specific form of abstract machine known as the random-access stored-program machine or RASP machine model. Like the universal Turing machine, the RASP stores its "program" in "memory" external to its finite-state machine's "instructions". Unlike the universal Turing machine, the RASP has an infinite number of distinguishable, numbered but unbounded "registers"—memory "cells" that can contain any integer (cf. Elgot and Robinson (1964), Hartmanis (1971), and in particular Cook-Rechow (1973); references at random access machine). The RASP's finite-state machine is equipped with the capability for indirect addressing (e.g., the contents of one register can be used as an address to specify another register); thus the RASP's "program" can address any register in the register-sequence. The upshot of this distinction is that there are computational optimizations that can be performed based on the memory indices, which are not possible in a general Turing machine; thus when Turing machines are used as the basis for bounding running times, a 'false lower bound' can be proven on certain algorithms' running times (due to the false simplifying assumption of a Turing machine). An example of this is binary search, an algorithm that can be shown to perform more quickly when using the RASP model of computation rather than the Turing machine model.

图灵机的一个局限性在于它们不能很好地模拟特定排列的优势。例如，现代存储程序计算机实际上是一种更具体形式的抽象机器的实例，这种抽象机器被称为随机存取存储程序机器或 RASP 机器模型。与美国通用图灵机一样，RASP 将其“程序”存储在有限状态机的“指令”之外的“内存”中。与通用图灵机不同，RASP 具有无限数量可区分的、编号的但无限制的“寄存器”ー内存“单元” ，可以包含任何整数(参见。Elgot 和 Robinson (1964) ，Hartmanis (1971) ，特别是 Cook-Rechow (1973) ; 随机存取机的引用)。RASP 的有限状态机可以间接寻址(例如，一个寄存器的内容可以用作另一个寄存器的地址) ，因此 RASP 的“程序”可以寻址寄存器序列中的任何寄存器。这种区分的结果是，可以基于内存索引执行计算优化，这在一般的图灵机中是不可能的; 因此，当图灵机被用作边界运行时间的基础时，在某些算法的运行时间上可以证明一个“错误的下界”(由于图灵机的错误简化假设)。这方面的一个例子是二进制搜索，当使用 RASP 计算模型而不是图灵机模型时，这种算法的执行速度更快。

Another limitation of Turing machines is that they do not model concurrency well. For example, there is a bound on the size of integer that can be computed by an always-halting nondeterministic Turing machine starting on a blank tape. (See article on unbounded nondeterminism.) By contrast, there are always-halting concurrent systems with no inputs that can compute an integer of unbounded size. (A process can be created with local storage that is initialized with a count of 0 that concurrently sends itself both a stop and a go message. When it receives a go message, it increments its count by 1 and sends itself a go message. When it receives a stop message, it stops with an unbounded number in its local storage.)

图灵机的另一个局限是它们不能很好地模拟并发性。例如，可以由始终停止的不确定图灵机从空白磁带上开始计算整数大小的界限。(见关于无界非决定论的文章)相比之下，总是有停止的并发系统没有输入，可以计算一个无界大小的整数。(可以使用初始化为0的本地存储创建进程，并同时发送停止和继续消息。当它接收到一条 go 消息时，它将其计数增加1，并发送一条 go 消息。当它接收到一个停止消息时，它在本地存储器中将停止使用一个无界数字

In the early days of computing, computer use was typically limited to batch processing, i.e., non-interactive tasks, each producing output data from given input data.

Since the 1970s, interactive use of computers became much more common.  In principle, it is possible to model this by having an external agent read from the tape and write to it at the same time as a Turing machine, but this rarely matches how interaction actually happens; therefore, when describing interactivity, alternatives such as I/O automata are usually preferred.

自20世纪70年代以来，交互式使用计算机变得越来越普遍。原则上，通过让外部代理程序读取磁带并同时向其写入数据是可能的，但这很少与交互实际发生的方式相匹配; 因此，在描述交互性时，I/O 自动机等替代程序通常是首选的。

By the 1928 international congress of mathematicians, Hilbert "made his questions quite precise. First, was mathematics complete ... Second, was mathematics consistent ... And thirdly, was mathematics decidable?" (Hodges p.&nbsp;91, Hawking p.&nbsp;1121). The first two questions were answered in 1930 by Kurt Gödel at the very same meeting where Hilbert delivered his retirement speech (much to the chagrin of Hilbert); the third—the Entscheidungsproblem—had to wait until the mid-1930s.

The problem was that an answer first required a precise definition of "definite general applicable prescription", which Princeton professor Alonzo Church would come to call "effective calculability", and in 1928 no such definition existed. But over the next 6–7 years Emil Post developed his definition of a worker moving from room to room writing and erasing marks per a list of instructions (Post 1936), as did Church and his two students Stephen Kleene and J. B. Rosser by use of Church's lambda-calculus and Gödel's recursion theory (1934). Church's paper (published 15 April 1936) showed that the Entscheidungsproblem was indeed "undecidable" and beat Turing to the punch by almost a year (Turing's paper submitted 28 May 1936, published January 1937). In the meantime, Emil Post submitted a brief paper in the fall of 1936, so Turing at least had priority over Post. While Church refereed Turing's paper, Turing had time to study Church's paper and add an Appendix where he sketched a proof that Church's lambda-calculus and his machines would compute the same functions.

问题在于，首先需要对“明确的一般适用处方”作出精确的定义，普林斯顿大学教授阿隆佐 · 丘奇将其称之为“有效可计算性” ，而在1928年并不存在这样的定义。但在接下来的6-7年里，埃米尔•波斯特(Emil Post)定义了一个从一个房间走到另一个房间的工人，他在一系列指令中擦去了字迹(1936年以后) ，丘奇和他的两个学生斯蒂芬•克莱恩(Stephen Kleene)和 j。B. Rosser 使用 Church 的 lambda 微积分和哥德尔的可计算性理论。丘奇的论文(发表于1936年4月15日)表明，可判定性确实是“无法判定的” ，几乎用了一年时间击败了图灵(图灵于1936年5月28日提交的论文，发表于1937年1月)。与此同时，埃米尔 · 波斯特在1936年秋天提交了一份简短的论文，因此图灵至少比波斯特有优先权。当丘奇审阅图灵的论文时，图灵有时间研究丘奇的论文，并在附录中草拟了一个证据，证明丘奇的 λ 微积分和他的机器可以计算相同的函数。

The word "state" used in context of Turing machines can be a source of confusion, as it can mean two things. Most commentators after Turing have used "state" to mean the name/designator of the current instruction to be performed—i.e. the contents of the state register. But Turing (1936) made a strong distinction between a record of what he called the machine's "m-configuration", and the machine's (or person's) "state of progress" through the computation - the current state of the total system. What Turing called "the state formula" includes both the current instruction and all the symbols on the tape:

在图灵机上下文中使用的“状态”这个词可能会引起混淆，因为它可能意味着两件事。图灵之后的大多数评论员都使用“ state”来表示当前要执行的指令的名称/指示器ーー即。国家登记册的内容。但是图灵(1936)在他所谓的机器“ m 配置”的记录和机器(或人)通过计算的“进展状态”——整个系统的当前状态——之间做出了很大的区别。图灵所说的“状态公式”包括当前指令和磁带上的所有符号:

Any Turing table (list of instructions) can be constructed from the above nine 5-tuples. For technical reasons, the three non-printing or "N" instructions (4, 5, 6) can usually be dispensed with. For examples see [[Turing machine examples]].
+
Earlier in his paper Turing carried this even further: he gives an example where he placed a symbol of the current "m-configuration"—the instruction's label—beneath the scanned square, together with all the symbols on the tape (The Undecidable, p.&nbsp;121); this he calls "the complete configuration" (The Undecidable, p.&nbsp;118). To print the "complete configuration" on one line, he places the state-label/m-configuration to the left of the scanned symbol.

While Gandy believed that Newman's statement above is "misleading", this opinion is not shared by all. Turing had a lifelong interest in machines: "Alan had dreamt of inventing typewriters as a boy; [his mother] Mrs. Turing had a typewriter; and he could well have begun by asking himself what was meant by calling a typewriter 'mechanical'" (Hodges p.&nbsp;96). While at Princeton pursuing his PhD, Turing built a Boolean-logic multiplier (see below). His PhD thesis, titled "Systems of Logic Based on Ordinals", contains the following definition of "a computable function":

在论文的前面，图灵进一步阐述了这个观点: 他举了一个例子，他把当前“ m 配置”(指令的标签)的一个符号和磁带上的所有符号(无法判定，第121页)放在了扫描的正方形下面，他称之为“完整配置”(无法判定，第118页)。为了在一行上打印“完整配置” ，他将 state-label/m-configuration 放在扫描符号的左侧。
   −
虽然甘迪认为纽曼的上述言论是“误导性的” ，但并非所有人都赞同这一观点。图灵一生都对机器有着浓厚的兴趣: “艾伦从小就梦想发明打字机; (他的母亲)图灵夫人有一台打字机; 他完全可以从问自己，称打字机为‘机械’是什么意思开始。”。在普林斯顿攻读博士学位期间，图灵构建了一个布尔逻辑乘数(见下文)。他的博士论文题为“基于序数的逻辑系统” ，包含了以下“可计算函数”的定义:

A variant of this is seen in Kleene (1952) where Kleene shows how to write the Gödel number of a machine's "situation": he places the "m-configuration" symbol q<sub>4</sub> over the scanned square in roughly the center of the 6 non-blank squares on the tape (see the Turing-tape figure in this article) and puts it to the right of the scanned square. But Kleene refers to "q<sub>4</sub>" itself as "the machine state" (Kleene, p.&nbsp;374-375). Hopcroft and Ullman call this composite the "instantaneous description" and follow the Turing convention of putting the "current state" (instruction-label, m-configuration) to the left of the scanned symbol (p.&nbsp;149).
 +
 +
在 Kleene (1952年) ，Kleene 展示了如何写出机器“状态”的哥德尔数: 他将“ m 配置”符号 q < sub > 4 </sub > 放置在磁带上6个非空白方块的中心，并将其放置在被扫描方块的右侧。但 Kleene 将“ q < sub > 4 </sub > ”本身称为“机器状态”(Kleene，p. 374-375)。霍普克罗夫特和乌尔曼称这种组合为“瞬时描述” ，并遵循图灵约定，将“当前状态”(指令-标签，m-配置)放在扫描符号的左侧(第149页)。
    
Less frequently the use of 4-tuples are encountered: these represent a further atomization of the Turing instructions (cf. Post (1947), Boolos & Jeffrey (1974, 1999), Davis-Sigal-Weyuker (1994)); also see more at [[Post–Turing machine]].

When Turing returned to the UK he ultimately became jointly responsible for breaking the German secret codes created by encryption machines called "The Enigma"; he also became involved in the design of the ACE (Automatic Computing Engine), "[Turing's] ACE proposal was effectively self-contained, and its roots lay not in the EDVAC [the USA's initiative], but in his own universal machine" (Hodges p.&nbsp;318). Arguments still continue concerning the origin and nature of what has been named by Kleene (1952) Turing's Thesis. But what Turing did prove with his computational-machine model appears in his paper "On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem" (1937):

In 1937, while at Princeton working on his PhD thesis, Turing built a digital (Boolean-logic) multiplier from scratch, making his own electromechanical relays (Hodges p.&nbsp;138). "Alan's task was to embody the logical design of a Turing machine in a network of relay-operated switches ..." (Hodges p.&nbsp;138). While Turing might have been just initially curious and experimenting, quite-earnest work in the same direction was going in Germany (Konrad Zuse (1938)), and in the United States (Howard Aiken) and George Stibitz (1937); the fruits of their labors were used by both the Axis and Allied militaries in World War II (cf. Hodges p.&nbsp;298–299). In the early to mid-1950s Hao Wang and Marvin Minsky reduced the Turing machine to a simpler form (a precursor to the Post–Turing machine of Martin Davis); simultaneously European researchers were reducing the new-fangled electronic computer to a computer-like theoretical object equivalent to what was now being called a "Turing machine". In the late 1950s and early 1960s, the coincidentally parallel developments of Melzak and Lambek (1961), Minsky (1961), and Shepherdson and Sturgis (1961) carried the European work further and reduced the Turing machine to a more friendly, computer-like abstract model called the counter machine; Elgot and Robinson (1964), Hartmanis (1971), Cook and Reckhow (1973) carried this work even further with the register machine and random-access machine models—but basically all are just multi-tape Turing machines with an arithmetic-like instruction set.

1937年，在普林斯顿大学完成博士论文时，图灵从零开始制造了一个数字(布尔逻辑)乘法器，制造了他自己的机电式继电器(Hodges p. 138)。“艾伦的任务是在中继操作的开关网络中体现图灵机的逻辑设计... ”(Hodges p. 138)。虽然图灵最初可能只是好奇和试验，但是在德国(Konrad Zuse，1938年) ，美国(Howard Aiken)和乔治 · 斯蒂比茨(George Stibitz，1937年) ，他们的劳动成果被轴心国和盟国军队在第二次世界大战中使用。Hodges p. 298-299).在20世纪50年代早期到中期，Hao Wang 和 Marvin Minsky 将图灵机简化为一种更简单的形式(它是 Martin Davis 的后图灵机的前身) ; 与此同时，欧洲的研究人员将这种新型电子计算机简化为一种类似于计算机的理论物体，相当于现在所说的“图灵机”。在20世纪50年代末和60年代初，巧合地并行发展的 Melzak 和 Lambek (1961)、 Minsky (1961)和 Shepherdson and Sturgis (1961)进一步推进了欧洲的工作，并将图灵机简化为一个更友好的、类似计算机的抽象模型，称为计数器; Elgot 和 Robinson (1964)、 Hartmanis (1971)、 Cook 和 Reckhow (1973)将这项工作进一步推进到寄存器和随机存取机器模型ーー但基本上所有这些都只是带有类似指令集的多磁带算术机。

Usually large tables are better left as tables (Booth, p.&nbsp;74). They are more readily simulated by computer in tabular form (Booth, p.&nbsp;74).

The reader should again be cautioned that such diagrams represent a snapshot of their table frozen in time, ''not'' the course ("trajectory") of a computation ''through'' time and space.

The diagram "Progress of the computation" shows the three-state busy beaver's "state" (instruction) progress through its computation from start to finish. On the far right is the Turing "complete configuration" (Kleene "situation"<!-- Stuation? Not Situation? Is that the right word? Yes, it is, cf. page 375 for example "The Godel number of the stiuation..." and then he shows a tape, etc. This usage runs throughout the chapter. wvbailey~~~~ --><!--So is it "stuation" or "stiuation"?-->, Hopcroft–Ullman "instantaneous description") at each step. If the machine were to be stopped and cleared to blank both the "state register" and entire tape, these "configurations" could be used to rekindle a computation anywhere in its progress (cf.

Many machines that might be thought to have more computational capability than a simple universal Turing machine can be shown to have no more power (Hopcroft and Ullman p.&nbsp;159, cf. Minsky (1967)). They might compute faster, perhaps, or use less memory, or their instruction set might be smaller, but they cannot compute more powerfully (i.e. more mathematical functions).

A Turing machine is equivalent to a single-stack [[pushdown automaton]] (PDA) that has been made more flexible and concise by relaxing the [[LIFO (computing)|last-in-first-out]] requirement of its stack. In addition, a Turing machine is also equivalent to a two-stack PDA with standard [[LIFO (computing)|last-in-first-out]] semantics, by using one stack to model the tape left of the head and the other stack for the tape to the right.

An interesting question is whether the computation model represented by concrete [[programming languages]] is Turing equivalent. While the computation of a real computer is based on finite states and thus not capable to simulate a Turing machine, programming languages themselves do not necessarily have this limitation. Kirner et al., 2009 have shown that among the general-purpose programming languages some are Turing complete while others are not. For example, [[ANSI C]] is not Turing-equivalent, as all instantiations of ANSI C (different instantiations are possible as the standard deliberately leaves certain behaviour undefined for legacy reasons) imply a finite-space memory. This is because the size of memory reference data types, called ''pointers'', is accessible inside the language. However, other programming languages like [[Pascal (programming language)|Pascal]] do not have this feature, which allows them to be Turing complete in principle.

It is just Turing complete in principle, as [[memory allocation]] in a programming language is allowed to fail, which means the programming language can be Turing complete when ignoring failed memory allocations, but the compiled programs executable on a real computer cannot.

It is often said{{By whom|date=February 2016}} that Turing machines, unlike simpler automata, are as powerful as real machines, and are able to execute any operation that a real program can. What is neglected in this statement is that, because a real machine can only have a finite number of ''configurations'', this "real machine" is really nothing but a [[finite state machine]]. On the other hand, Turing machines are equivalent to machines that have an unlimited amount of storage space for their computations.
         +
Many machines that might be thought to have more computational capability than a simple universal Turing machine can be shown to have no more power (Hopcroft and Ullman p.&nbsp;159, cf. Minsky (1967)). They might compute faster, perhaps, or use less memory, or their instruction set might be smaller, but they cannot compute more powerfully (i.e. more mathematical functions). (Recall that the Church–Turing thesis hypothesizes this to be true for any kind of machine: that anything that can be "computed" can be computed by some Turing machine.)
   −
There are a number of ways to explain why Turing machines are useful models of real computers:
+
许多机器，可能被认为比一个简单的通用图灵机有更多的计算能力，可以证明没有更多的权力(霍普克罗夫特和 Ullman p. 159，参考 f。明斯基(1967))。他们可能计算得更快，或者使用更少的内存，或者他们的指令集可能更小，但是他们不能计算得更有力(即。更多的数学函数)。(回想一下，丘奇-图灵的论点假设这对任何机器都是正确的: 任何可以被“计算”的东西都可以被一些图灵机计算出来。)

A Turing machine is equivalent to a single-stack pushdown automaton (PDA) that has been made more flexible and concise by relaxing the last-in-first-out requirement of its stack. In addition, a Turing machine is also equivalent to a two-stack PDA with standard last-in-first-out semantics, by using one stack to model the tape left of the head and the other stack for the tape to the right.
    +
图灵机相当于一个单堆栈下推自动机(PDA) ，通过放松堆栈中“先入先出”的要求，使其更加灵活和简洁。此外，通过使用一个堆栈对磁头左侧的磁带进行建模，而使用右侧的另一个堆栈对磁带进行建模，图灵机也等价于具有标准“后进先出”语义的双堆栈 PDA。
    +
The reader should again be cautioned that such diagrams represent a snapshot of their table frozen in time, ''not'' the course ("trajectory") of a computation ''through'' time and space. While every time the busy beaver machine "runs" it will always follow the same state-trajectory, this is not true for the "copy" machine that can be provided with variable input "parameters".

# Anything a real computer can compute, a Turing machine can also compute. For example: "A Turing machine can simulate any type of subroutine found in programming languages, including recursive procedures and any of the known parameter-passing mechanisms" (Hopcroft and Ullman p.&nbsp;157). A large enough FSA can also model any real computer, disregarding IO. Thus, a statement about the limitations of Turing machines will also apply to real computers.
     −
# The difference lies only with the ability of a Turing machine to manipulate an unbounded amount of data. However, given a finite amount of time, a Turing machine (like a real machine) can only manipulate a finite amount of data.
     −
# Like a Turing machine, a real machine can have its storage space enlarged as needed, by acquiring more disks or other storage media.
+
At the other extreme, some very simple models turn out to be Turing-equivalent, i.e. to have the same computational power as the Turing machine model.
   −
# Descriptions of real machine programs using simpler abstract models are often much more complex than descriptions using Turing machines. For example, a Turing machine describing an algorithm may have a few hundred states, while the equivalent deterministic finite automaton (DFA) on a given real machine has quadrillions. This makes the DFA representation infeasible to analyze.
+
在另一个极端，一些非常简单的模型被证明是图灵等价的，例如。具有与图灵机模型相同的计算能力。

# Turing machines describe algorithms independent of how much memory they use. There is a limit to the memory possessed by any current machine, but this limit can rise arbitrarily in time. Turing machines allow us to make statements about algorithms which will (theoretically) hold forever, regardless of advances in ''conventional'' computing machine architecture.

It is often said that Turing machines, unlike simpler automata, are as powerful as real machines, and are able to execute any operation that a real program can. What is neglected in this statement is that, because a real machine can only have a finite number of configurations, this "real machine" is really nothing but a finite state machine. On the other hand, Turing machines are equivalent to machines that have an unlimited amount of storage space for their computations.

人们常说，图灵机不同于简单的自动机，它和真正的机器一样强大，能够执行真正的程序所能执行的任何操作。在这个陈述中被忽略的是，因为一个真实的机器只能有有限数量的配置，这个“真实的机器”实际上只是一个有限的状态机。另一方面，图灵机相当于拥有无限存储空间进行计算的机器。

This finding is now taken for granted, but at the time (1936) it was considered astonishing. The model of computation that Turing called his "universal machine"—"'''U'''" for short—is considered by some (cf. Davis (2000)) to have been the fundamental theoretical breakthrough that led to the notion of the [[stored-program computer]].

Anything a real computer can compute, a Turing machine can also compute. For example: "A Turing machine can simulate any type of subroutine found in programming languages, including recursive procedures and any of the known parameter-passing mechanisms" (Hopcroft and Ullman p.&nbsp;157). A large enough FSA can also model any real computer, disregarding IO. Thus, a statement about the limitations of Turing machines will also apply to real computers.

任何一台真正的计算机可以计算的东西，图灵机也可以计算。例如: “图灵机可以模拟在编程语言中发现的任何类型的子例程，包括递归过程和任何已知的参数传递机制”(Hopcroft 和 Ullman p. 157)。一个足够大的 FSA 还可以模拟任何真正的计算机，而不用考虑 IO。因此，关于图灵机局限性的陈述也将适用于真正的计算机。

The difference lies only with the ability of a Turing machine to manipulate an unbounded amount of data. However, given a finite amount of time, a Turing machine (like a real machine) can only manipulate a finite amount of data.

In terms of [[Computational complexity theory|computational complexity]], a multi-tape universal Turing machine need only be slower by [[logarithm]]ic factor compared to the machines it simulates. This result was obtained in 1966 by F. C. Hennie and [[R. E. Stearns]]. (Arora and Barak, 2009, theorem 1.9)

Like a Turing machine, a real machine can have its storage space enlarged as needed, by acquiring more disks or other storage media.

Descriptions of real machine programs using simpler abstract models are often much more complex than descriptions using Turing machines. For example, a Turing machine describing an algorithm may have a few hundred states, while the equivalent deterministic finite automaton (DFA) on a given real machine has quadrillions. This makes the DFA representation infeasible to analyze.
 +
 
 +
使用简单的抽象模型描述真实机器程序通常比使用图灵机描述复杂得多。例如，一台描述算法的图灵机可能有几百种状态，而给定实际机器上的等价确定有限状态自动机(DFA)有千万亿。这使得 DFA 表示法无法进行分析。

Turing machines describe algorithms independent of how much memory they use. There is a limit to the memory possessed by any current machine, but this limit can rise arbitrarily in time. Turing machines allow us to make statements about algorithms which will (theoretically) hold forever, regardless of advances in conventional computing machine architecture.

图灵机描述的算法与它们使用的内存量无关。任何当前的机器所拥有的内存都是有限的，但是这个限制随着时间的推移可以任意上升。图灵机允许我们对算法做出永恒的陈述(理论上) ，而不管传统计算机体系结构的进步如何。

A limitation of Turing machines is that they do not model the strengths of a particular arrangement well. For instance, modern stored-program computers are actually instances of a more specific form of abstract machine known as the random-access stored-program machine or RASP machine model. Like the universal Turing machine, the RASP stores its "program" in "memory" external to its finite-state machine's "instructions". Unlike the universal Turing machine, the RASP has an infinite number of distinguishable, numbered but unbounded "registers"—memory "cells" that can contain any integer (cf. Elgot and Robinson (1964), Hartmanis (1971), and in particular Cook-Rechow (1973); references at random access machine). The RASP's finite-state machine is equipped with the capability for indirect addressing (e.g., the contents of one register can be used as an address to specify another register); thus the RASP's "program" can address any register in the register-sequence. The upshot of this distinction is that there are computational optimizations that can be performed based on the memory indices, which are not possible in a general Turing machine; thus when Turing machines are used as the basis for bounding running times, a 'false lower bound' can be proven on certain algorithms' running times (due to the false simplifying assumption of a Turing machine). An example of this is binary search, an algorithm that can be shown to perform more quickly when using the RASP model of computation rather than the Turing machine model.
 +
 
 +
图灵机的一个局限性在于它们不能很好地模拟特定排列的优势。例如，现代存储程序计算机实际上是一种更具体形式的抽象机器的实例，这种抽象机器被称为随机存取存储程序机器或 RASP 机器模型。与美国通用图灵机一样，RASP 将其“程序”存储在有限状态机的“指令”之外的“内存”中。与通用图灵机不同，RASP 具有无限数量可区分的、编号的但无限制的“寄存器”ー内存“单元” ，可以包含任何整数(参见。Elgot 和 Robinson (1964) ，Hartmanis (1971) ，特别是 Cook-Rechow (1973) ; 随机存取机的引用)。RASP 的有限状态机可以间接寻址(例如，一个寄存器的内容可以用作另一个寄存器的地址) ，因此 RASP 的“程序”可以寻址寄存器序列中的任何寄存器。这种区分的结果是，可以基于内存索引执行计算优化，这在一般的图灵机中是不可能的; 因此，当图灵机被用作边界运行时间的基础时，在某些算法的运行时间上可以证明一个“错误的下界”(由于图灵机的错误简化假设)。这方面的一个例子是二进制搜索，当使用 RASP 计算模型而不是图灵机模型时，这种算法的执行速度更快。

Another limitation of Turing machines is that they do not model concurrency well. For example, there is a bound on the size of integer that can be computed by an always-halting nondeterministic Turing machine starting on a blank tape. (See article on unbounded nondeterminism.) By contrast, there are always-halting concurrent systems with no inputs that can compute an integer of unbounded size. (A process can be created with local storage that is initialized with a count of 0 that concurrently sends itself both a stop and a go message. When it receives a go message, it increments its count by 1 and sends itself a go message. When it receives a stop message, it stops with an unbounded number in its local storage.)
 +
 
 +
图灵机的另一个局限是它们不能很好地模拟并发性。例如，可以由始终停止的不确定图灵机从空白磁带上开始计算整数大小的界限。(见关于无界非决定论的文章)相比之下，总有停止的并发系统没有输入，可以计算无界大小的整数。(可以使用初始化为0的本地存储创建进程，并同时发送停止和继续消息。当它接收到一条 go 消息时，它将其计数增加1，并发送一条 go 消息。当它接收到一个停止消息时，它在本地存储器中停止运行，并显示一个无界数字

In the early days of computing, computer use was typically limited to batch processing, i.e., non-interactive tasks, each producing output data from given input data. Computability theory, which studies computability of functions from inputs to outputs, and for which Turing machines were invented, reflects this practice.

在计算机的早期，计算机的使用通常局限于批处理，也就是说，非交互式任务，每个输出数据来自给定的输入数据。可计算性理论研究从输入到输出的函数的可计算性，图灵机就是为此而发明的。

Since the 1970s, interactive use of computers became much more common.  In principle, it is possible to model this by having an external agent read from the tape and write to it at the same time as a Turing machine, but this rarely matches how interaction actually happens; therefore, when describing interactivity, alternatives such as I/O automata are usually preferred.
 +
 
 +
自20世纪70年代以来，交互式使用计算机变得越来越普遍。原则上，通过让外部代理程序读取磁带并同时写入磁带来建模是可能的，但这很少与交互实际发生的方式相匹配; 因此，在描述交互性时，通常首选 I/O 自动机这样的替代程序。

The problem was that an answer first required a precise definition of "definite general applicable prescription", which Princeton professor Alonzo Church would come to call "effective calculability", and in 1928 no such definition existed. But over the next 6–7 years Emil Post developed his definition of a worker moving from room to room writing and erasing marks per a list of instructions (Post 1936), as did Church and his two students Stephen Kleene and J. B. Rosser by use of Church's lambda-calculus and Gödel's recursion theory (1934). Church's paper (published 15 April 1936) showed that the Entscheidungsproblem was indeed "undecidable" and beat Turing to the punch by almost a year (Turing's paper submitted 28 May 1936, published January 1937). In the meantime, Emil Post submitted a brief paper in the fall of 1936, so Turing at least had priority over Post. While Church refereed Turing's paper, Turing had time to study Church's paper and add an Appendix where he sketched a proof that Church's lambda-calculus and his machines would compute the same functions.
 +

问题在于，首先需要对“明确的一般适用处方”作出精确的定义，普林斯顿大学教授阿隆佐 · 丘奇将其称之为“有效可计算性” ，而在1928年并不存在这样的定义。但在接下来的6-7年里，埃米尔•波斯特(Emil Post)定义了一个从一个房间走到另一个房间的工人，他在一系列指令中擦去了字迹(1936年以后) ，丘奇和他的两个学生斯蒂芬•克莱恩(Stephen Kleene)和 j。B. Rosser 使用 Church 的 lambda 微积分和哥德尔的可计算性理论。丘奇的论文(发表于1936年4月15日)表明，可判定性确实是“无法判定的” ，几乎用了一年时间击败了图灵(图灵于1936年5月28日提交的论文，发表于1937年1月)。与此同时，埃米尔 · 波斯特在1936年秋天提交了一份简短的论文，因此图灵至少比波斯特有优先权。当丘奇审阅图灵的论文时，图灵有时间研究丘奇的论文，并在附录中草拟了一个证据，证明丘奇的 λ 微积分和他的机器可以计算相同的函数。

In the spring of 1935, Turing as a young Master's student at King's College Cambridge, UK, took on the challenge; he had been stimulated by the lectures of the logician M. H. A. Newman "and learned from them of Gödel's work and the Entscheidungsproblem ... Newman used the word 'mechanical' ... In his obituary of Turing 1955 Newman writes:

 +
1935年春天，图灵作为英国剑桥国王学院的一名年轻的硕士生接受了这个挑战，他受到逻辑学家 m. h. a. Newman 的演讲的鼓舞，从他们那里学到了哥德尔的作品和可判定性... ..。在图灵1955年的讣告中，纽曼写道:
 +
 
 +
By the 1928 international congress of mathematicians, Hilbert "made his questions quite precise. First, was mathematics ''[[Completeness (logic)|complete]]'' ... Second, was mathematics ''[[Consistency proof|consistent]]'' ... And thirdly, was mathematics ''[[Decidability (logic)|decidable]]''?" (Hodges p.&nbsp;91, Hawking p.&nbsp;1121). The first two questions were answered in 1930 by [[Kurt Gödel]] at the very same meeting where Hilbert delivered his retirement speech (much to the chagrin of Hilbert); the third—the Entscheidungsproblem—had to wait until the mid-1930s.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
 
 +
The problem was that an answer first required a precise definition of "''definite general applicable prescription''", which Princeton professor [[Alonzo Church]] would come to call "[[effective calculability]]", and in 1928 no such definition existed. But over the next 6–7 years [[Emil Post]] developed his definition of a worker moving from room to room writing and erasing marks per a list of instructions (Post 1936), as did Church and his two students [[Stephen Kleene]] and [[J. B. Rosser]] by use of Church's [[lambda-calculus]] and Gödel's [[recursion theory]] (1934). Church's paper (published 15 April 1936) showed that the Entscheidungsproblem was indeed "undecidable" and beat Turing to the punch by almost a year (Turing's paper submitted 28 May 1936, published January 1937). In the meantime, Emil Post submitted a brief paper in the fall of 1936, so Turing at least had priority over Post. While Church refereed Turing's paper, Turing had time to study Church's paper and add an Appendix where he sketched a proof that Church's lambda-calculus and his machines would compute the same functions.

 +
And Post had only proposed a definition of [[Church–Turing thesis|calculability]] and criticized Church's "definition", but had proved nothing.
 +
 
 +

 +
While Gandy believed that Newman's statement above is "misleading", this opinion is not shared by all. Turing had a lifelong interest in machines: "Alan had dreamt of inventing typewriters as a boy; [his mother] Mrs. Turing had a typewriter; and he could well have begun by asking himself what was meant by calling a typewriter 'mechanical'" (Hodges p.&nbsp;96). While at Princeton pursuing his PhD, Turing built a Boolean-logic multiplier (see below). His PhD thesis, titled "Systems of Logic Based on Ordinals", contains the following definition of "a computable function":

虽然甘迪认为纽曼的上述言论是“误导性的” ，但并非所有人都赞同这一观点。图灵一生都对机器有着浓厚的兴趣: “艾伦从小就梦想发明打字机; (他的母亲)图灵夫人有一台打字机; 他完全可以从问自己，称打字机为‘机械’是什么意思开始。”。在普林斯顿攻读博士学位期间，图灵构建了一个布尔逻辑乘数(见下文)。他的博士论文题为“基于序数的逻辑系统” ，包含了以下“可计算函数”的定义:

When Turing returned to the UK he ultimately became jointly responsible for breaking the German secret codes created by encryption machines called "The Enigma"; he also became involved in the design of the ACE (Automatic Computing Engine), "[Turing's] ACE proposal was effectively self-contained, and its roots lay not in the EDVAC [the USA's initiative], but in his own universal machine" (Hodges p.&nbsp;318). Arguments still continue concerning the origin and nature of what has been named by Kleene (1952) Turing's Thesis. But what Turing did prove with his computational-machine model appears in his paper "On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem" (1937):

当图灵回到英国后，他最终共同负责破解由加密机制造的德国秘密代码“谜” ; 他还参与了 ACE (自动计算机引擎)的设计，“(图灵的) ACE 提案实际上是独立的，它的根基不在于 EDVAC (美国的倡议) ，而在于他自己的通用机器”(第318页)。关于克莱恩(1952)图灵命名的东西的起源和性质的争论仍在继续。但是图灵用他的计算机模型证明的东西出现在他的论文《论可计算的数字，以及对可判定性的应用》(1937)中:

He told me that the 'main idea' of the paper came to him when he was lying in Grantchester meadows in the summer of 1935. The 'main idea' might have either been his analysis of computation or his realization that there was a universal machine, and so a [[Cantor's diagonal argument|diagonal argument]] to prove unsolvability.|''ibid.'', p. 76}}

In 1937, while at Princeton working on his PhD thesis, Turing built a digital (Boolean-logic) multiplier from scratch, making his own electromechanical relays (Hodges p.&nbsp;138). "Alan's task was to embody the logical design of a Turing machine in a network of relay-operated switches ..." (Hodges p.&nbsp;138). While Turing might have been just initially curious and experimenting, quite-earnest work in the same direction was going in Germany (Konrad Zuse (1938)), and in the United States (Howard Aiken) and George Stibitz (1937); the fruits of their labors were used by both the Axis and Allied militaries in World War II (cf. Hodges p.&nbsp;298–299). In the early to mid-1950s Hao Wang and Marvin Minsky reduced the Turing machine to a simpler form (a precursor to the Post–Turing machine of Martin Davis); simultaneously European researchers were reducing the new-fangled electronic computer to a computer-like theoretical object equivalent to what was now being called a "Turing machine". In the late 1950s and early 1960s, the coincidentally parallel developments of Melzak and Lambek (1961), Minsky (1961), and Shepherdson and Sturgis (1961) carried the European work further and reduced the Turing machine to a more friendly, computer-like abstract model called the counter machine; Elgot and Robinson (1964), Hartmanis (1971), Cook and Reckhow (1973) carried this work even further with the register machine and random-access machine models—but basically all are just multi-tape Turing machines with an arithmetic-like instruction set.

1937年，在普林斯顿写博士论文的时候，图灵从零开始制造了一个数字(布尔逻辑)乘法器，制造了他自己的机电式继电器(Hodges p. 138)。“艾伦的任务是在中继操作的开关网络中体现图灵机的逻辑设计... ”(Hodges p. 138)。虽然图灵最初可能只是好奇和试验，但是在德国(Konrad Zuse，1938年)和美国(Howard Aiken，1937年)都在朝着同一个方向努力，他们的劳动成果被轴心国和盟国的军队在二战中使用。Hodges p. 298-299).在20世纪50年代早期到中期，Hao Wang 和 Marvin Minsky 将图灵机简化为一种更简单的形式(它是 Martin Davis 的后图灵机的前身) ; 与此同时，欧洲研究人员将这种新型电子计算机简化为一种类似于计算机的理论物体，相当于现在所说的“图灵机”。在20世纪50年代后期和60年代初期，巧合地并行发展的 Melzak 和 Lambek (1961)、 Minsky (1961)和 Shepherdson and Sturgis (1961)进一步推进了欧洲的工作，并将图灵机简化为一个更友好的、类似计算机的抽象模型，称为计数器; Elgot 和 Robinson (1964)、 Hartmanis (1971)、 Cook 和 Reckhow (1973)将这项工作进一步推进到寄存器和随机存取机器模型ーー但基本上所有这些都只是带有类似指令集的多磁带算术机器。

We may take this statement literally, understanding by a purely mechanical process one which could be carried out by a machine. It is possible to give a mathematical description, in a certain normal form, of the structures of these machines. The development of these ideas leads to the author's definition of a computable function, and to an identification of computability with effective calculability.

A limitation of Turing machines is that they do not model the strengths of a particular arrangement well. For instance, modern stored-program computers are actually instances of a more specific form of [[abstract machine]] known as the [[random-access stored-program machine]] or RASP machine model. Like the [[universal Turing machine]], the RASP stores its "program" in "memory" external to its finite-state machine's "instructions". Unlike the universal Turing machine, the RASP has an infinite number of distinguishable, numbered but unbounded "registers"—memory "cells" that can contain any integer (cf. Elgot and Robinson (1964), Hartmanis (1971), and in particular Cook-Rechow (1973); references at [[random access machine]]). The RASP's finite-state machine is equipped with the capability for indirect addressing (e.g., the contents of one register can be used as an address to specify another register); thus the RASP's "program" can address any register in the register-sequence. The upshot of this distinction is that there are computational optimizations that can be performed based on the memory indices, which are not possible in a general Turing machine; thus when Turing machines are used as the basis for bounding running times, a 'false lower bound' can be proven on certain algorithms' running times (due to the false simplifying assumption of a Turing machine). An example of this is [[binary search]], an algorithm that can be shown to perform more quickly when using the RASP model of computation rather than the Turing machine model.

Another limitation of Turing machines is that they do not model concurrency well. For example, there is a bound on the size of integer that can be computed by an always-halting nondeterministic Turing machine starting on a blank tape. (See article on [[unbounded nondeterminism]].) By contrast, there are always-halting concurrent systems with no inputs that can compute an integer of unbounded size. (A process can be created with local storage that is initialized with a count of 0 that concurrently sends itself both a stop and a go message. When it receives a go message, it increments its count by 1 and sends itself a go message. When it receives a stop message, it stops with an unbounded number in its local storage.)
