Lesson plan
Queue automaton
A queue machine, queue automaton, or pullup automaton is a finite-state machine with the ability to store and retrieve data from an infinite-memory queue. Its design is similar to a pushdown automaton but differs by replacing the stack with this queue. A queue machine is a model of computation equivalent to a Turing machine, and therefore it can process the same class of formal languages.
