Complexity classes of formal languages defined by time-and tape-bounded Turing acceptors are studied. Sufficient conditions for these classes to be AFLs are given. Further, it is shown that a time-bounded nondeterministic Turing acceptor need have only two storage tapes.

โฆ Synopsis
Conditions are given under which the classes of formal languages defined by nondeterministic (deterministic) tape-bounded Turing acceptors will be principal AFLs.
This paper is a sequel to the immediately preceding paper (see Ref. [1]). 1 To avoid unnecessary duplication, the terminology, notation, and introductory concepts are presented only in Ref. [1]. It is assumed here that the reader is familiar with the results of Ref. [1].
The purpose of this paper is to provide conditions for a function f such that the family of languages accepted by nondeterministic (deterministic) Turing acceptors which operate within tape bound f forms a principal AFL.
