Last Updated: 20060410, mei Saturday, May 20, 17:30 — 18:30T6 - THE ORIGINS OF DIGITAL AUDIO AND COMPUTERS: CRACKING ENGIMA—WWII CIPHER MACHINES AND THE ULTRA SECRET Presenter: Jon Paul Abstract: This tutorial is a historical perspective on codes, cipher machines, Enigma, and the foundations of digital audio and computing. Compression, DSP, and modern computing evolved from developments in WWII such as speech scrambling and breaking the Enigma code. The cracking of Enigma advanced Allied victory by a year and led the way to much of today's digital technology. We will highlight various cipher machines and their solutions to illustrate a time line that points directly toward modern digital audio. |
