Edward "Ted" A. Newman (born 1918, died 1996) was born in Walthamstow. He graduated from University College London in 1938 with a B.Sc. in Physics. After working on the digital (pulsed) electronics of the H2S airborn radar system, he joined the National Physical Laboratory (United Kingdom) in 1947. He helped develop Alan Turing’s ideas for general purpose stored-program computer, leading to the design of the Pilot ACE.
Like Turing, he was a keen runner, and the two would meet up regularly in Manchester to train together, and to have lively discussions on the prospect of machine intelligence.[1]
In the early 1980s, we was appointed visiting professor at the Department of Computer Science of Westfield College London until just before the closure of the college in 1989, and gave occasional lectures during this time.
