RLangGFun

Short Description

The inverse Schützenberger methodology transforms a rational generating function into a (pseudo-) regular expression for a corresponding regular language, and is based on Soittola's Theorem about the N-rationality of a formal power series. It is implemented in the Maple package RLangGFun. This package has been written by Christoph Koutschan within the scope of his diploma thesis, advised by Prof. Volker Strehl at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany.
