Institution:

Western Oregon University

Subject:

Description:

This course explores the mathematical foundation of computer science. The various levels of automata theory are covered along with their deterministic and non-deterministic counterparts. Emphasis is on identifying the gain in "power" as each new machine is introduced and the implications of the class of problems each is able to solve. Finally, a tie is established between the theoretical models and the modern day algorithms which can be described by these models. Prerequisites: CS 311 and CS 345
