Theory of Computation by Vivek Kulkarni: A Comprehensive Guide
Part 2: Context-Free Grammar and Pushdown Automata (PDA)
- Topics: Derivation trees, Ambiguity, Simplification of CFG (removing null/unit productions), Chomsky Normal Form (CNF), Greibach Normal Form (GNF), Designing PDA.
- Kulkarni’s Strength: The section on "Designing PDA by converting CFG" is particularly lucid. He shows the "expand-match" technique visually. Students searching for the PDF often do so specifically for the table he provides on "Instantaneous Descriptions" (ID) of PDA.
