Abstract

The notion of a program over a finite semigroup has recently emerged from the work of D.A. Barrington on bounded-width branching programs [2], [3], and the joint work of D.A. Barrington and D. Therien [4], [5]. These authors introduced programs over semigroups under the name of “non-uniform deterministic finite automata (NUDFA)”, and they studied the potential programs have in terms of recognizability of certain languages that are commonly treated in complexity theory by using families of Boolean circuits.
