Using JFLAP to interact with theorems in automata theory
An automata theory course can be taught in an interactive, hands-on manner using a computer. At Duke we have been using the software tool JFLAP to provide interaction and feedback...

A visual and interactive automata theory course with JFLAP 4.0
We describe the instructional software JFLAP 4.0 and how it can be used to provide a hands-on formal languages and automata theory course. JFLAP 4.0 doubles the number of chapters...

Increasing engagement in automata theory with JFLAP
We describe the results from a two-year study with fourteen universities on presenting formal languages in a more visual, interactive and applied manner using JFLAP. In our result...

Turning automata theory into a hands-on course
We present a hands-on approach to problem solving in the formal languages and automata theory course. Using the tool JFLAP, students can solve a wide range of problems that are te...

A Context-Free Process as a Pushdown Automaton
A well-known theorem in automata theory states that every context-free language is accepted by a pushdown automaton. We investigate this theorem in the setting of processes, using ...
