Abstract: Recently, we introduced and investigated a colored variant of finite automata, so-called "colored finite automata." Its accepting states are able to be differently colored each and therefore ...

For this programming project, you will construct a regular expression engine using C (preferable) or Java to implement your program. If you use Java, your program must run without any external ...

ABSTRACT: The paper continues the research on algorithms for generating nondeterministic finite automata possessing the following property (the so-called walibad property): among their covering ...

Utterly obsessed with gaming, anime, and manga for the past 25 years, Carley attended Florida State University, graduating with a degree in Japanese in 2012. A professional Japanese/English translator ...

If you grew up, well, basically anywhere besides the United States, chances are you have at least a basic understanding of more than one language. It's easy to blame this on "lazy" and/or "dumb" ...

Back in the early ‘70s, our first or second grade teacher, as a class science project, had us create a giant terrarium in a marvelously huge bottle she had obtained during a trip to Mexico. We ...

A finite state machine is an abstract machine which can be in exactly one of a *finite* number of *states* at any given time. FSMs can have outputs but this is not required. Those that do not have ...
