On the variation in literary languages The article discusses the formation and development of several literary languages. The main objects of the study are the Finno-Ugric languages spoken in the Volga-Kama region (Russia), and Chuvash, but, for comparison, Norwegian, Arabic, Russian, Finnish and some other Finno-Ugric languages are treated, as well. A general classification of cases where linguistic variation tends to occur in standard languages is put forward. The author also discusses the question whether some kind of universal “normal” amount of variation can be defined for literary languages. The conclusion is that the degree of variation allowed in a literary norm is highly language-specific and depends on the characteristics of the linguistic situation and the history of the literary standard.

The Theorica Pantegni is a medieval medical textbook written in Latin. The author was Constantine the African (Constantinus Africanus), a monk of Tunisian origin. He compiled the work in the latter half of the eleventh century at the Benedictine monastery of Monte Cassino in Italy. - Manuscript Eö.II.14, containing the Theorica Pantegni published here, belongs today to the National Library of Finland. It can be dated to the third quarter of the twelfth century, which makes it one of the earliest surviving exemplars of the Theorica Pantegni: over seventy manuscripts of the work survive, of which about fifteen can be dated to the twelfth century. Manuscript Eö.II.14 is written in black ink on 210 parchment leaves (recto and verso), amounting to 420 pages, in pre-Gothic script. - The present text is a transcription of Ms Eö.II.14. The goal is to provide the reader with an accessible text that is faithful to the original.

Tämä tutkielma kuuluu merkkijonoalgoritmiikan piiriin. Merkkijono S on merkkijonojen X[1..m] ja Y[1..n] yhteinen alijono, mikäli se voidaan muodostaa poistamalla X:stä 0..m ja Y:stä 0..n kappaletta merkkejä mielivaltaisista paikoista. Jos yksikään X:n ja Y:n yhteinen alijono ei ole S:ää pidempi, sanotaan, että S on X:n ja Y:n pisin yhteinen alijono (lyh. PYA). Tässä työssä keskitytään kahden merkkijonon PYAn ratkaisemiseen, mutta ongelma on yleistettävissä myös useammalle jonolle. PYA-ongelmalle on sovelluskohteita – paitsi tietojenkäsittelytieteen niin myös bioinformatiikan osa-alueilla. Tunnetuimpia niistä ovat tekstin ja kuvien tiivistäminen, tiedostojen versionhallinta, hahmontunnistus sekä DNA- ja proteiiniketjujen rakennetta vertaileva tutkimus. Ongelman ratkaisemisen tekee hankalaksi ratkaisualgoritmien riippuvuus syötejonojen useista eri parametreista. Näitä ovat syötejonojen pituuden lisäksi mm. syöttöaakkoston koko, syötteiden merkkijakauma, PYAn suhteellinen osuus lyhyemmän syötejonon pituudesta ja täsmäävien merkkiparien lukumäärä. Täten on vaikeaa kehittää algoritmia, joka toimisi tehokkaasti kaikille ongelman esiintymille. Tutkielman on määrä toimia yhtäältä käsikirjana, jossa esitellään ongelman peruskäsitteiden kuvauksen jälkeen jo aikaisemmin kehitettyjä tarkkoja PYAalgoritmeja. Niiden tarkastelu on ryhmitelty algoritmin toimintamallin mukaan joko rivi, korkeuskäyrä tai diagonaali kerrallaan sekä monisuuntaisesti prosessoiviin. Tarkkojen menetelmien lisäksi esitellään PYAn pituuden ylä- tai alarajan laskevia heuristisia menetelmiä, joiden laskemia tuloksia voidaan hyödyntää joko sellaisinaan tai ohjaamaan tarkan algoritmin suoritusta. Tämä osuus perustuu tutkimusryhmämme julkaisemiin artikkeleihin. Niissä käsitellään ensimmäistä kertaa heuristiikoilla tehostettuja tarkkoja menetelmiä. Toisaalta työ sisältää laajahkon empiirisen tutkimusosuuden, jonka tavoitteena on ollut tehostaa olemassa olevien tarkkojen algoritmien ajoaikaa ja muistinkäyttöä. Kyseiseen tavoitteeseen on pyritty ohjelmointiteknisesti esittelemällä algoritmien toimintamallia hyvin tukevia tietorakenteita ja rajoittamalla algoritmien suorittamaa tuloksetonta laskentaa parantamalla niiden kykyä havainnoida suorituksen aikana saavutettuja välituloksia ja hyödyntää niitä. Tutkielman johtopäätöksinä voidaan yleisesti todeta tarkkojen PYA-algoritmien heuristisen esiprosessoinnin lähes systemaattisesti pienentävän niiden suoritusaikaa ja erityisesti muistintarvetta. Lisäksi algoritmin käyttämällä tietorakenteella on ratkaiseva vaikutus laskennan tehokkuuteen: mitä paikallisempia haku- ja päivitysoperaatiot ovat, sitä tehokkaampaa algoritmin suorittama laskenta on.

The thesis presents results obtained during the authors PhD-studies. First systems of language equations of a simple form consisting of just two equations are proved to be computationally universal. These are systems over unary alphabet, that are seen as systems of equations over natural numbers. The systems contain only an equation X+A=B and an equation X+X+C=X+X+D, where A, B, C and D are eventually periodic constants. It is proved that for every recursive set S there exists natural numbers p and d, and eventually periodic sets A, B, C and D such that a number n is in S if and only if np+d is in the unique solution of the abovementioned system of two equations, so all recursive sets can be represented in an encoded form. It is also proved that all recursive sets cannot be represented as they are, so the encoding is really needed. Furthermore, it is proved that the family of languages generated by Boolean grammars is closed under injective gsm-mappings and inverse gsm-mappings. The arguments apply also for the families of unambiguous Boolean languages, conjunctive languages and unambiguous languages. Finally, characterizations for morphisims preserving subfamilies of context-free languages are presented. It is shown that the families of deterministic and LL context-free languages are closed under codes if and only if they are of bounded deciphering delay. These families are also closed under non-codes, if they map every letter into a submonoid generated by a single word. The family of unambiguous context-free languages is closed under all codes and under the same non-codes as the families of deterministic and LL context-free languages.

This thesis introduces an extension of Chomsky’s context-free grammars equipped with operators for referring to left and right contexts of strings.The new model is called grammar with contexts. The semantics of these grammars are given in two equivalent ways — by language equations and by logical deduction, where a grammar is understood as a logic for the recursive definition of syntax. The motivation for grammars with contexts comes from an extensive example that completely defines the syntax and static semantics of a simple typed programming language. Grammars with contexts maintain most important practical properties of context-free grammars, including a variant of the Chomsky normal form. For grammars with one-sided contexts (that is, either left or right), there is a cubic-time tabular parsing algorithm, applicable to an arbitrary grammar. The time complexity of this algorithm can be improved to quadratic,provided that the grammar is unambiguous, that is, it only allows one parsefor every string it defines. A tabular parsing algorithm for grammars withtwo-sided contexts has fourth power time complexity. For these grammarsthere is a recognition algorithm that uses a linear amount of space. For certain subclasses of grammars with contexts there are low-degree polynomial parsing algorithms. One of them is an extension of the classical recursive descent for context-free grammars; the version for grammars with contexts still works in linear time like its prototype. Another algorithm, with time complexity varying from linear to cubic depending on the particular grammar, adapts deterministic LR parsing to the new model. If all context operators in a grammar define regular languages, then such a grammar can be transformed to an equivalent grammar without context operators at all. This allows one to represent the syntax of languages in a more succinct way by utilizing context specifications. Linear grammars with contexts turned out to be non-trivial already over a one-letter alphabet. This fact leads to some undecidability results for this family of grammars

Arabic cookery book, dated tentatively to 12th or 13th century by the editors (Öhrnberg & Mroueh) on the basis of the script. Aro suggests (grounds not made explicit) that the manuscript came to the library from the collections of G. A. Wallin, but Öhrnberg & Mroueh simply describe it as being of unknown provenance.
