Sequential Circuits from Regular Expressions Revisited.
We revisit the long-neglected problem of sequential circuit constructions from regular expressions. The class of languages that are recognized by sequential circuits is equivalent to the class of regular languages. This fact is shown in [5] together with an inductive construction technique from regular expressions. In this note, we present an alternative algorithm, called the trigger-set approach, obtained by reversing well-known the follow-set approach to construct automata. We use our algorithm to obtain a regular expression matcher based on sequential circuits. Finally, we report our performance results in comparison with existing automata-based matchers.

Keeping up-to-date with research can feel impossible, with papers being published faster than you'll ever be able to read them. That's where Researcher comes in: we're simplifying discovery and making important discussions happen. With over 19,000 sources, including peer-reviewed journals, preprints, blogs, universities, podcasts and Live events across 10 research areas, you'll never miss what's important to you. It's like social media, but better. Oh, and we should mention - it's free.
Researcher displays publicly available abstracts and doesn’t host any full article content. If the content is open access, we will direct clicks from the abstracts to the publisher website and display the PDF copy on our platform. Clicks to view the full text will be directed to the publisher website, where only users with subscriptions or access through their institution are able to view the full article.
