Prime Computability on Partial Structures

  • Chapter

Abstract

The notion of prime computability on abstract (unordered) domains is introduced by Moschovakis [1]. The prime computable functions are exactly those which are computable by means of deterministic (serial) procedures. In partial structures not every computable by means of nondeterministic (parallel) procedures function is prime computable. The aim of this paper is to give a generalization of the notion of prime computability in order to obtain the functions which are computable by means of parallel procedures.
