A minimum automaton is the automaton that cannot be modeled with fewer states. Let a DFA D has n states that accepts a language L. If D is minimum then no other DFA can model L with number of states less than n.
Deterministic finite state automata
finite automata
A deterministic Finite Automata)DFA will have a single possible output for a given input.The answer is deterministic because you can always feel what the output will be.A (Nondeterministic Finite Automata)NFA will have at least one input which will cause a "choice" to be made during a state transition,unlike a (deterministic Finite Automata)DFA one input can cause multiple outputs for a given (Nondeterministic Finite Automata)NFA.
Automata UK ended in 1985.
The Production Budget for Automata was $15,000,000.
Automata was released on 12/31/2014.
Is the main purpose of using Automata?
Lexical analysis is the first state of the Compiler design, in this state human typed programs are broken in to tokens and then those tokens are recognized through the Automata theory. For more details please refer the book, Modern Compiler designing in C
In general, finite state machines can model regular grammars. Deterministic finite automata can represent deterministic context-free grammars. Non-deterministic finite automata can represent context-free grammars.
