91Abstract family of acceptors — An abstract family of acceptors (AFA) is a grouping of generalized acceptors. Informally, an acceptor is a device with a finite state control, a finite number of input symbols, and an internal store with a read and write function. Each acceptor… …
92Automata-based programming — is a programming paradigm in which the program or its part is thought of as a model of a finite state machine or any other (often more complicated) formal automata (see automata theory). Sometimes a potentially infinite set of possible states is… …
93Automata-based programming (Shalyto's approach) — Automata Based Programming is a programming technology [1] . Its defining characteristic is the use of finite state machines to describe program behavior. The transition graphs of a state machines are used in all stages of software development… …
94Deterministic automaton — is a concept of automata theory in which the outcome of a transition from one state to another given a certain input can be predicted for every occurrence. A common deterministic automaton is a deterministic finite state machine (sometimes… …
95Counter machine — A counter machine is an abstract machine used in formal logic and theoretical computer science to model computation. It is the most primitive of the four types of register machines. A counter machine comprises a set of one or more unbounded… …
96Post correspondence problem — The Post correspondence problem is an undecidable decision problem that was introduced by Emil Post in 1946.[1] Because it is simpler than the halting problem and the Entscheidungsproblem it is often used in proofs of undecidability. Contents 1… …
97McNaughton's Theorem — In automata theory, McNaughton s theorem refers to a theorem that asserts that the set of ω regular languages is identical to the set of languages recognizable by deterministic Muller automata. [1] This theorem is proven by supplying an algorithm …
98Semigroup — This article is about the algebraic structure. For applications to differential equations, see C0 semigroup. In mathematics, a semigroup is an algebraic structure consisting of a set together with an associative binary operation. A semigroup… …
99Potts model — In statistical mechanics, the Potts model, a generalization of the Ising model, is a model of interacting spins on a crystalline lattice. By studying the Potts model, one may gain insight into the behaviour of ferromagnets and certain other… …
