โฆ Synopsis
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.

The principal result described in this paper is the equivalence of the following statements : (1) Every set accepted by a nondeterministic one-way two-head finite automaton can be accepted by a deterministic two-way k-head finite automaton, for some k. (2) The context-free language Lp (described i
