NOTES ON THE THEORY OF FINITE MACHINES,

Abstract

The purpose of the notes is to provide some background for the engineer who may have difficulty in reading the Krohn-Rhodes paper (Algebraic Theory of Machines) reproduced in the appendix. The notes present a summary of the new algebraic theory aimed at giving the engineer a broad understanding of the approach, but not claiming that effective design methods have yet been developed. No attempt has been made to make the notes definitive or complete; in all mathematical questions the KrohnRhodes paper should serve as the sole reference.
