Abstract
The notion of sequential computation is based on the von Neumann machine (von Neumann 1966) whose functioning can be displayed in a very simple, symbolic way (Fig. 1.1). The first part of the respective machinery, called memory, serves as a store of computer programmes with instructions, whereas the second part, called processor, in which an ordinary arithmetic rule of addition is performed within an operation system.
