  • In this paper we consider non-deterministic finite Rabin-Scott’s automata. We use a special structure to descibe all the possible edges of non-determinstic finite automaton defining the given regular language. Such structure can be used for solving various problems of finite automata theory. One of these problems is edge-minimization of non-deterministic automata. As we have not touched this problem before, we obtain here two versions of the algorithm for solving this problem to continue previous series of articles.

  • We consider a possible generalization of nondeterministic finite automata. The goals of this consideration are: to apply some obtained algorithms for various problems of minimization of classical nondeterministic automata; to use such automata for describing practical anytime algorithms for the same problems of minimization; to simplify some proofs for algorithms of simplification for usual nondeterministic automata.

  • Some new problems of the theory of the finite automata are considered. Applying the finite automata in various tasks of the formal languages theory is observed. Special proof of Kleene's theorem is obtained. This proof is used for the defining the star-height of the finite automaton. The proper-ties of the last object are considered. The star-height of the finite automaton is used for reformulating the star-height problem of regular expression for finite automata. The method of the reduction of the star-height problem to the task of making special finite automaton is obtained. This reformulating can help to solve the star-height problem by new way.

  • A new problem of the theory of finite automata (Rabin-Scott's automata) is considered. So called basis automaton for the given regular language l is defined. this automaton is unique for the given L, it is defined by two au-tomata of canonical form: for L and for its inverse language LR. Some properties of basis automata are considered. Such properties make these automata most convenient for using in some special tasks dealing with the given regular language.

  • Although there have been many studies on using finite automata for intrusion detection, it has been a difficult problem to generate compact finite automata automatically. In a previous research an approach to profile normal behaviors using finite automata was proposed. They divided the system call sequence of each process into three parts prefix, main portion, and suffix, and then substituted macros for frequently occurring substrings. However, the procedure was not automatic. In this paper we present algorithms to automatically generate intrusion detection automata from the sequence of system calls resulting from the normal runs of the programs. We also show the effectiveness of the proposed method through experiments.

  • Finite automation is a mathematical model to represent a system with discrete inputs and outputs. Finite automata are a useful tool for solving problems such as text editor, lexical analyzer, and switching circuit. In this paper, given a deterministic finite automaton of an input string of length n and m states, we propose a constant time parallel algorithm that represents the transition states of finite automata and determines the acceptance of an input string on a reconfigurable mesh of size [nm/2]$\times$2m.

  • In this Paper we consider non-deterministic finite Rabin-Scott's automata. We define special abstract objects, being pairs of values of states-marking functions. On the basis of these objects as the states of automaton, we define its edges; the obtained structure is considered also as a non-deterministic automaton. We prove, that any edge of any non-deterministic automaton defining the given regular language can be obtained by such techniques. Such structure can be used for solving various problems in the frames of finite automata theory.

  • The problem of the state-minimization for the nonde-terministic finite Rabin-Scott's automata is considered. A new algo-rithm for this problem is obtained. The obtained algorithm has the exponential effectiveness like the earlier-known algorithms for this problem. But each of previous algo-rithms amounts to the search of minimum generative system for local reaction of equal automaton of canonical form and unlike them we use in this paper two special function marking states of the given automaton.
