What was Alan Mathison Turing known for?
Alan Turing was an English mathematician. During World War 2 he worked on decyphering secret messages and invented a Turing Machine, that became the basis of modern computing.
Turing provided an influential formalisation of the concept of the algorithm and computation with the Turing machine. With the Turing test, he made a significant and characteristically provocative contribution to the debate regarding artificial intelligence: whether it will ever be possible to say that a machine is conscious and can think.
Why does the save screen kick you off your computer?
"Save screens" do not "kick you off your computer" or otherwise prevent a user from using the computer. "Screen savers" (i.e., the image(s) that may appear after the user's computer has been idle for a while) were created to prevent old CRT screens and monitors - - which had very intense, power consuming, electron beams forming the characters and images on the screen, similar to old-style televisions - - from permanently "burning" characters and images on the screen. When a preset or user-entered amount of idle-time had elapsed, the screen would either go blank or display a low-intensity image to prevent this "burning". In the days before the "mouse" was created, hitting the keyboard space bar or "escape" (Esc) key was all that was needed to restore the image to whatever the user had on it before the screen saver took over. With the advent of the mouse, usually, just clicking one of the mouse buttons did the same thing. Today, with raster, LCD, plasma, and energy efficient monitors, making "burning" almost impossible, screen savers, today, are generally just "eye candy". However, some screen savers (or similar functions) may temporarily "lock" the computer, once the screen saver is activated, so that, if the user walked away from his/her computer, it wouldn't be left vulnerable or unsecured, such that someone could see potentially private information and/or accidentally (or purposely!) delete files. Some schools and businesses do this on purpose to prevent exactly that. Home computers can be setup to do that, as well. In most cases, either hitting a keyboard or mouse button (or a series or combined set of keyboard buttons) will bring up a screen that will ask the user to re-enter their user ID and/or password. Once the appropriate user has entered the correct information, the screen usually reverts to display whatever the user had before the screen saver was activated. In the event that the screen saver does not restore the user screen, then either the user does not have permission to use that computer, or his/her time has expired (as may be the case at a school or library), or the user does not understand how to release the screen saver (i.e., many businesses have their own methods of de-activating screen savers).

What Have you observe for the past and present of computers?
It is my observation that our computing devices will keep getting smaller and more sophisticated. This is partly because of consumer demand, and partly because the technology used to make our computing devices work is becoming smaller and more powerful.

What is computer system structure?
You are asking a big question. I will expect some consideration.
A computer is a device that can perform repetitive functions, and through a system of programming languages, yield answers to what are basically mathematical questions. The modern computer is capable of much more through the application of programs like word processors and image enhancers. Devices on a computer can make copies of digital data like Cd's and DVDs.
So here is the explanation. A computer has some basic components. It needs a processor, memory, an input and output system for data, a system for displaying data, video, and an optional system for reproducing sound, audio.
Processor. This is the brain of the computer. It is the system that utilises the languages that have been used to program a computer to do specific tasks. Like the calculator on a Windows PC. or word processing programs like the one I am using now.
Next is memory. Specifically random access memory. This is the part that stores information temporarily while you are engaging in the use of a particular application, like a word processor. It holds data while awaiting finalization. For example, if I want to change something I just typed, I can just backspace and correct it. because it is stored in temporary memory.
Then you have the input/output system. This is how we input and receive the information from the computer. It usually consists of a keyboard and mouse for input and a monitor, speakers and printer for output.
Then you have storage devices. All modern computers have a hard drive. This is a device that stores data in binary form, that is in sequences of ones and zeroes on a magnetic media. In addition, you will also have a CD or DVD device that may be capable of recording as well as reading digital data.
These are the basic components of a modern computer.
