  bibo_abstract:
  - The notion of delays arises naturally in many computational models, such as, in
    the design of circuits, control systems, and dataflow languages. In this work,
    we introduce automata with delay blocks (ADBs), extending finite state automata
    with variable time delay blocks, for deferring individual transition output symbols,
    in a discrete-time setting. We show that the ADB languages strictly subsume the
    regular languages, and are incomparable in expressive power to the context-free
    languages. We show that ADBs are closed under union, concatenation and Kleene
    star, and under intersection with regular languages, but not closed under complementation
    and intersection with other ADB languages. We show that the emptiness and the
    membership problems are decidable in polynomial time for ADBs, whereas the universality
    problem is undecidable. Finally we consider the linear-time model checking problem,
    i.e., whether the language of an ADB is contained in a regular language, and show
    that the model checking problem is PSPACE-complete. Copyright 2012 ACM.@eng
