Synopsis
This book is an examination of finite automata, particularly regular expressions in the context of regular languages. It takes a theoretical yet practical approach to the study of automata, going over important historical algorithms like the Rabin and Scott algorithm along with more recent innovations from the author and Berry and Sethi. The theoretical work is complemented by a study of how to implement these algorithms and their efficiency. At the heart of this book is a new algorithm for constructing finite automata from regular expressions, which is shown to be superior to previous approaches both in terms of the amount of space required and the speed of operation. The book also includes a discussion of how to use these finite automata to construct deterministic finite automata, which are more efficient for certain applications. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of finite automata and regular languages, making it a valuable resource for students and researchers in theoretical computer science and related fields.
