Legendary cyber-security expert Professor Gene Spafford joins us to try to define what cyber-security even is! "Spaf" as he's known, is a faculty member at Purdue University and now Honorary Professor at the University of Nottingham.
Dr Spafford is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Association for the Advancement of Science, the ACM, the IEEE, and the (ISC)2; a Distinguished Fellow of the ISSA; and a member of the Cyber Security Hall of Fame, the only person to ever hold all these distinctions.

You can optimise for speed, power consumption or memory use & tiny changes can have a negligible or huge impact, but what should you optimise and most importantly, when? Dr Steve Bagley has an example!

What was the first undecidable problem? Professor Brailsford takes us on a computerphile tangent & gives us his angle on a pre-computer example of undecidability.
Note from Professor Brailsford: a couple of corrections for this film:
1/ "... early 18th Century" for Gauss should be " ... early 19th century"
2/ "... 100 years ago" for Newton should be "... 100 years before Gauss
3/ The Greek word I was struggling with was "Boeotians". I have now taken expert advice which tells me that the "oe" is pronounced "ee" as in "Oedipus". Hence a reasonable approximation to the correct pronunciation is "Bee-oh-shuns"
4/ In my excitement to get the message across I sometimes refer, in the video, to Euclid's 5th axiom being a "proposition". However it is more accurately a "postulate" i.e. something which should be provable from the other axioms/postulates of the Euclidean system. The fact that it can't be thus proved means that the other axioms are insufficiently powerful to prove it -- hence it is "undecidable" within that axiom system."
