The article describes the development of a practical device for teaching
in the area of Computer Theory. In the study, an adaptation
of the Turing Machine is presented, using hardware and software
integration to interpret Formal Languages. Simulating an Automaton,
sensors and motors are used to move the device head to the left
and right and to read and write the input tape. The development
of the mechanism is described in two parts, the first includes the
hardware that consists of the construction and adaptation of the
Turing Machine, the second the implementation of the software and
communication part between both. The developed device, allows
the interpretation of a binary alphabet (0, 1), where an input word is
accepted, and as an output result, such device rejected or accepted
the word.
O Computer on the Beach é um evento técnico-científico que visa reunir profissionais, pesquisadores e acadêmicos da área de Computação, a fim de discutir as tendências de pesquisa e mercado da computação em suas mais diversas áreas.
