Nelma Moreira's Annual Report

Nelma Moreira's Annual Report

Year: 

2015

Brief description of the research activities: 

- With G.Pighizzini and R.Reis studied the complexity of two language operations that can be expressed by suitable combining complement with
concatenation and star.

- With E. Maia and R. Reis studied  and developed new  conversion methods from regular expressions to equivalent non-deterministic finite automata

- With S. Broda, A. Machiavelo and R. Reis extended the partial derivative automaton to the shuffle operation and study the avarage state complexity within the framework of analytic combinatorics

- With M. Ramos and J.C. B. Almeida development of a mechanical formalization of basic concepts of context-free grammars and languages within the interactive theorem prover Coq

- With R. Bastos, S. Broda, A. Machiavelo and R. Reis extended derivative based methods to intersection and complement

- With S. Konstantinidis and R. Reis extended FAdo capabilities by implementing methods to manipulate transducers and we go one level higher than existing formal language systems and implement methods to manipulate objects representing classes of independent languages (widely known as code properties).
