Turing Machine Model• Are there computations that no “reasonable” computing machine can perform?
– the machine should not store the answer to all possible problems
– it should process information (execute instructions) at a finite speed
– it is capable of performing a particular computation only if it can generate the answer in a finite number of steps
• Alan M. Turing (1912-1954) in 1936 defined an abstract model for use in describing the decision problem

Finite State Automatons
• A Finite-State Automaton (FSA) consists of:– a set I, the input alphabet;– a set S, the states;– an initial state;– a subset of S called accepting states;– a state transition function N: S x I S
• N(s,m) is the state to which the FSA goes if m is the input when the FSA is in state s.
Petri Nets• A Petri Net is a bipartite directed graph and consists of:
– a set P of places (a state in which the system could be observed);– a set T of transitions (the rules “fire” causing state changes);– an input function I:T P*; a mapping from transitions to
“bags” of places– an output function O:T P*; a mapping from transitions to
“bags” of places;– a marking M:P {0,1,2,…} which assigns tokens to places:
• M’(p) = M(p) + 1 if p is a member of O(t) and p is not a member of I(t),
• M’(p) = M(p) - 1 if p is a member of I(t) and p is not a member of O(t),
• M’(p) = M(p) otherwise.– a transition is enabled if M(p) > 0 for all p members of I(t)
