Pushdown Automata and Context-Free Grammars in Bisimulation Semantics [PDF]
The Turing machine models an old-fashioned computer, that does not interact with the user or with other computers, and only does batch processing. Therefore, we came up with a Reactive Turing Machine that does not have these shortcomings. In the Reactive

A Formalization and Proof of the Extended Church-Turing Thesis -Extended Abstract- [PDF]
We prove the Extended Church-Turing Thesis: Every effective algorithm can be efficiently simulated by a Turing machine. This is accomplished by emulating an effective algorithm via an abstract state machine, and simulating such an abstract state machine ...

Reactive Turing machines [PDF]
We propose reactive Turing machines (RTMs), extending classical Turing machines with a process-theoretical notion of interaction, and use it to define a notion of executable transition system. We show that every computable transition system with a bounded branching degree is simulated modulo divergence-preserving branching bisimilarity by an RTM, and ...

Some undecidable problems about the trace-subshift associated to a Turing machine [PDF]
We consider three problems related to dynamics of one-tape Turing machines: Existence of blocking configurations, surjectivity in the trace, and entropy positiveness. In order to address them, a reversible two-counter machine is simulated by a reversible

How Hard Is It to Detect Surveillance? A Formal Study of Panopticons and Their Detectability Problem
The Panopticon (which means “watcher of everything”) is a well-known prison structure of continuous surveillance and discipline studied by Bentham in 1785. Today, where persistent, massive scale, surveillance is immensely facilitated by new technologies,

The $\pi$-Calculus is Behaviourally Complete and Orbit-Finitely Executable [PDF]
Reactive Turing machines extend classical Turing machines with a facility to model observable interactive behaviour. We call a behaviour (finitely) executable if, and only if, it is equivalent to the behaviour of a (finite) reactive Turing machine.

The non-cooperative tile assembly model is not intrinsically universal or capable of bounded Turing machine simulation [PDF]
The field of algorithmic self-assembly is concerned with the computational and expressive power of nanoscale self-assembling molecular systems. In the well-studied cooperative, or temperature 2, abstract tile assembly model it is known that there is a ...

Quaternionic quantum Turing machines
Quaternionic quantum theory is an extension of the standard complex quantum theory. Inspired by this, we study the quaternionic quantum computation using quaternions.

Molecular system for an exponentially fast growing programmable synthetic polymer
In this paper, we demonstrate a molecular system for the first active self-assembly linear DNA polymer that exhibits programmable molecular exponential growth in real time, also the first to implement “internal” parallel insertion that does not rely on ...
