A Turing Machine

............Tape

Read-Write head

Control Unit

Prof. Busch - LSU 5

The Tape

............

Read-Write head

No boundaries -- infinite length

The head moves Left or Right

Prof. Busch - LSU 6

............

Read-Write head

The head at each transition (time step):

1. Reads a symbol 2. Writes a symbol 3. Moves Left or Right

Prof. Busch - LSU 7

............

Example:Time 0

............Time 1

1. Reads

2. Writes

a a cb

a b k c

3. Moves Right

Prof. Busch - LSU 9

The Input String

............

Head starts at the leftmost positionof the input string

Turing Machines are deterministic

Prof. Busch - LSU 16

Partial Transition Function

............ a b ca

Example:

No transitionfor input symbol c

Allowed:

Prof. Busch - LSU 17

Halting

The machine halts in a state if there isno transition to follow

Prof. Busch - LSU 18

Halting Example 1:

............ a b ca

1q

1q No transition from

HALT!!!

Prof. Busch - LSU 19

Halting Example 2:

............ a b ca

Prof. Busch - LSU 20

Accepting States

1q 2q Allowed

1q 2q Not Allowed

•Accepting states have no outgoing transitions•The machine halts and accepts

Prof. Busch - LSU 21

Acceptance

Accept Input If machine halts in an accept state

Reject Input

If machine halts in a non-accept state or If machine enters an infinite loop

string

string

Prof. Busch - LSU 22

Observation:

In order to accept an input string,it is not necessary to scan all thesymbols in the string

Prof. Busch - LSU 23

Infinite

loop

Prof. Busch - LSU 38

Because of the infinite loop:

•The accepting state cannot be reached

•The machine never halts

•The input string is rejected

Prof. Busch - LSU 39

Match a’s with b’s:Repeat: replace leftmost a with x find leftmost b and replace it with yUntil there are no more a’s or b’s

If there is a remaining a or b reject

If we modify the machine for the language }{ nnba

we can easily construct a machine for the language }{ nnn cba
