In the algebraic theory of codes and formal languages, the set Q of all primitive words over some alphabet Σ has received special interest. With this survey article we give an ove...
Recent research has sought to develop formal languages for business communication as more expressive, flexible and powerful alternatives to current electronic data interchange (ED...
The engineering of systems that are acceptably correct is a hard problem. On the one hand, semi-formal modelling approaches that are used in practical, large-scale system developm...
A combinatorial channel is a set of pairs of words describing all the possible input-output channel situations. We introduce the concept "maximal error-detecting capability&q...
