Abstract

This paper deals with the concepts of a matrix form and strict interpretation. By a matrix form we mean a context-free matrix grammar. Via an interpretation mechanism it generates a family of structurally related grammars and these generate a family of languages. We study here the properties of matrix forms as generators for the families of regular, linear and context-free languages. It is for instance shown that an arbitrary matrix form with only one nonterminal symbol does not generate the family of context-free languages if it contains a matrix with at least two productions.
