Turing machine universality of the game of life
Rendell P., Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, New York, NY, 2015. 177 pp. Type: Book (978-3-319198-41-5)
Since it was invented by John Conway and popularized in Martin Gardner’s “Mathematical Games” column in
Scientific American
in 1970 [1], the Game of Life (GoL) has held a special fascination for fan...

Limits of computation: an introduction to the undecidable and the intractable
Reiter E., Johnson C., Chapman & Hall/CRC, Boca Raton, FL, 2013. 279 pp. Type: Book (978-1-439882-06-1), Reviews: (2 of 2)
Reiter and Johnson have produced an excellent but “gentle introduction to the theory of computational complexity,” as they put it. This gentleness is entirely appropriate, given the notoriously nuanced, seemingly im...

Theory of computation
Tourlakis G., Wiley Publishing, Hoboken, NJ, 2012. 416 pp. Type: Book (978-1-118014-78-3)
Like other works I’ve encountered by this author [1,2,3], this book is characterized by consummate logico-mathematical rigor, coupled with commensurate expository and pedagogical merit. Rigor is certainly a necessary attribut...

Proofs and algorithms: an introduction to logic and computability
Dowek G., Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, New York, NY, 2011. 195 pp. Type: Book (978-0-857291-20-2)
Mathematical logic is a challenging subject for many students. While its results are of critical importance to computer scientists, its experts often struggle to convey its main ideas to a lay audience. At first glance, this book, with...

Elements of computation theory
Singh A., Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, New York, NY, 2009. 422 pp. Type: Book (9781848824966), Reviews: (2 of 2)
This book gathers the essential parts of computability theory that typically comprise undergraduate-level courses. While the topics are considered elements of computation theory, most of the chapters cover formal language theory. Thus,...

Automata theory with modern applications
Anderson J., Cambridge University Press, New York, NY, 2006. 260 pp. Type: Book (9780521613248), Reviews: (2 of 2)
Automata theory is the branch of the theory of computation concerned with the study of abstract computing devices. Automata theory came into existence even before computers were invented. Finite automata are useful for modeling many ki...
