Professor Google strikes again. Just type in "a pioneer in computing and automation" and he was top of the list.-just lucky.
Yep, I did not check my clues for google resistance!

Woo Hoo, just noticed I posted the 5,000th entry on this thread yesterday!
Go and buy a powerball ticket---i'll go halves with you.?? 
In 1887 a device using polyphase current came into use in Europe, generating a rotating magnetic field. What was it and who was the inventor? :/
Was it the induction motor by Tesla?

I reckon that's it, Rob, but if it is, did Jaros forget it is the Australian History thread? I did that once, and led folks on a wild goose chase for while!
Yep, seem to have strayed a l'il bit. Sorry .

I am not that good at this type of thing so will have to rely on my personal experience associated with Oz history.
What is the Oz geological feature that has world recognition, whose name is based on an aboriginal word that reflects the nature of some aspects of its structure?

Uluru (Ayres Rock) Sorry if incorrect spelling
Wot skool didyago too
The same one as you by the looks.
While that may answer the questions, I believe that they call it Uluru rather than the name that I am looking for referring to some aspects of the item. Let me know when you want extra clues, but this is further north.

Gosses Bluff Crater, Known as " Tnorala " by the land owners, Beautiful legend,

From Wikipedia,
A Western Arrernte story attributes its origins to a cosmic impact: in the Dreaming, a group of celestial women were dancing as stars in the Milky Way. One of the women grew tired and placed her baby in a wooden basket. As the women continued dancing, the basket fell and plunged into the earth. The baby fell to the earth and forced the rocks upward, forming the circular mountain range. The baby's parents, the evening and morning star, continue to search for their baby to this day. The turna can be seen in the sky as the constellation Corona Australis[6][8][9]

Hmm, not so easy... I'd suggest the great barrier reef, but that does not fit the Aboriginal name clue.
