ABSTRACT
Micron's new Automata Processor (AP) architecture exploits the very high and natural level of parallelism found in DRAM technologies to achieve native-hardware implementation of non-deterministic finite automata (NFAs). The use of DRAM technology to implement the NTA states provides high capacity and therefore provide extraordinary parallelism for pattern recognition. In this paper, we give an overview of AP's architecture, programming and applications.

Limited Automata and Context-Free Languages
Non-Classical Models of Automata and Applications VLimited automata are one-tape Turing machines which are allowed to rewrite each tape cell only in the first d visits, for a given constant d. For each d ≥ 2, these devices characterize the class of context-free languages. We investigate the equivalence ...
On the power of quantum finite state automata
FOCS '97: Proceedings of the 38th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer ScienceIn this paper, we introduce 1-way and 2-way quantum finite state automata (1qfa's and 2qfa's), which are the quantum analogues of deterministic, nondeterministic and probabilistic 1-way and 2-way finite state automata. We prove the following facts ...
Descriptional complexity of limited automata
A k-limited automaton is a linear bounded automaton that may rewrite each tape cell only in the first k visits, where k0 is a fixed constant. It is known that these automata accept context-free languages only. We investigate the descriptional complexity ...
