....of trace monoids comes from the theory of concurrent systems since they arise when simulations of these systems are considered. For most of the fundamental decision problems about rational trace languages a characterization of the monoids where these problems are decidable was already established [25, 2, 6, 21, 35, 1, 36] (for an overview see e.g. 15] A lot of work has been done also in the study of trace codings, but the status of decision problems of trace codings turned out to be more complicated. The first task concerning trace codings is to give an effective procedure for deciding whether a given morphism ....

....Transitions are based on the current state, the letter being read, and whether each counter contains zero; the transition indicates a next state, which direction, if any, to move the input head, and whether to increment, decrement, or hold each counter. The formal definition is reproduced from [47]. Definition 94 1. A two way k counter machine M is a tuple hk; K; Sigma; ffi; q 0 ; F i where K, Sigma, q 0 , and F are the states, inputs, left and right endmarkers, initial state, and accepting states, respectively. ffi is a mapping from K Theta ( Sigma [f ; g) Theta f0; ....

....this subsection, we compare some of them to Parikh automata. Parikh automata can be seen as automata extended with counters, where a vector of natural numbers attached to a symbol is interpreted as an increment of the counters. In contrast to other counter automata models in the literature, e.g. [8, 13, 15], we do not restrict the applicability of transitions in a run by additional guards on the values of the counters. Instead, a Parikh automaton constrains the language of an automaton over the extended alphabet with a Presburger arithmetic formula. It turns out that Parikh word automata are as ....

It turns out that Parikh word automata are as expressive as Ibarra s reversal bounded multicounter machines [15]. Ibarra s [15] reversal bounded multicounter machines are two way automata augmented with counters, where the reversals of the movement of the input head, and the reversals of decrement and increment of the counters are bounded. Property 8. Reversal bounded multicounter machines and Parikh ....

On binary inputs, if one restricts the counter machines to make only a finite number of turns on the input tape, the emptiness problem is also undecidable, even for the case when the input head makes only one turn (i.e. change in direction) [9]. However, for one way counter machines, it is known that the equivalence (hence also the emptiness) problem is decidable, but the containment and disjointness problems are undecidable [14] In this paper, we study two way finite automata augmented with finitely many counters.

A restricted version of these machines was studied in [9], where: i) each counter is reversal bounded in that it can be incremented or decremented by 1 and tested for zero, but the number of times it can change mode from nondecreasing to nonincreasing and vice versa is bounded by a constant, and ii) the two way input is finite crossing in that the ....

A restricted version of these machines was studied in [Iba78]. Since a counter can be incremented decremented by 1 (and tested if it is 0) we count each alternation from non increasing mode to nondecreasing mode or viceversa as a reversal. For k; m; r 2 N (the natural numbers) we define an m crossing r reversal k counter machine M as a two way finite ....

The proof is a rather involved reduction to the solution of a special class of Diophantine systems of degree 2 via a class of programs called two phase programs. The result has applications to verification of infinite state systems. 1 Introduction Automata theory tries to answer questions ....

However, for such machines with one way input, the emptiness problem is decidable, since they are simply pushdown automata with a unary stack alphabet. Restricting the operation of the counter in a two way one counter machine makes the emptiness problem decidable for some classes. For example, ....

It is known that the emptiness problem for reversal bounded NCMs (when used as language recognizers) is decidable [18]. When a reversal bounded NCM uses linear relations as tests instead of using standard tests, we have the following result. Theorem 5.

Let 2DCM(c; r) denote the class of deterministic machines with a two way input tape and c r reversal bounded counters. Then the emptiness problem for 2DCM(c; r) when c 2 and r 1 is undecidable [18]. An interesting special case is when c = 1, i.e. there is only one counter. A language is 2DCM recognizable if it can be accepted by a 2DCM(1; r) Theorem 6. The emptiness problem for 2DCM recognizable languages is decidable [19] It is still open whether Theorem 6 holds for nondeterministic ....
