Automata Studio (FSA/TG)

Abstract

As we know students feel difficulties in doing their assignment specially when it requires some hand written work. Finite state machine is one of the thing that requires hand written diagrams and students feel very frustrated in drawing them over and over again. Because of these reasons I have developed this application which accepts hand drawn images as an input, and generates the graphical design view of output same as input. User can then save the output in form of image, or can edit it. User can create FSA’s newly from the scratch, and can save it in form of image. Automata Studio is a system developed for drawing finite state machine with the help of graphics and image processing techniques. This application has been designed for the ease of students and teachers who has to draw the diagrams again and again. Clean and visible diagrams can be drawn by the help of this application. This application is for now being limited to the drawing of the finite state machines. But in future, (INSHALLAH) this project can be extended for generation of Regular Expressions, Transition Graphs, Push-down Automata.
