Welcome

Welcome to the course website for COSC 3340 - Intro to Automata and Computation.

Goals

To provide computer science students with a broad understanding of various models of computation, several different characterizations of the power of each model, and the relative power of the models. Students are taught what can and what cannot be computed even by idealized computing devices. They are exposed to essential computational paradigms in a rigorous way.
