Undecidability - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Understanding the Limits of Computation in CMSC.281 Undecidability

Exploring the concept of undecidability in computing, we delve into the question of whether there are tasks that cannot be computed. The journey leads us to the theorem that the language ATM, defined as containing Turing Machine descriptions accepting input strings, is undecidable, showcasing the fu

Challenges of Unbounded Program Analysis

Verifying unbounded programs poses challenges due to the undecidability of certain computational resources like memory usage, execution time, and data structures. The presence of infinite execution paths, unbounded loops, recursion, and dynamic memory allocation makes it difficult to determine progr
