Abstract

We give an acount of the basic determinants of the courses of computation of the Infinite Time Turing Machine model of Hamkins and Kidder, a model of computation which allows for transfinitely many steps of computation, and therefore may accept and output infinite strings of bits. We provide, inter alia, a Normal form Theorem, and a characterisation of which ordinals start gaps in halting times of such machines.
