C H A P T E R Finite-State Machines and Pushdown Automata The finite-state machine (FSM) and the pushdown automaton (PDA) enjoy a special place in computer science. The FSM has proven to be a very useful model for many practical tasks and deserves to be among the tools of every practicing computer scientist. Many simple tasks‚ such as interpreting the commands typed into a keyboard or running a calculator‚ can be modeled by finite-state machines. The PDA is a model to which one appeals when
