Abstract

It is a common problem of all branches of mathematics to represent an object (algebraic structure, function etc.) by using other-possibly simpler — ones. Similarly, in the theory of automata such investigations are useful for two reasons. (1) For practical reasons, real automata are composed of various elements of certain type. (2) Several properties of a composition of automata can be deduced from those of its factors.
