=====discrete Keyword 3===== finite state machine. ====Definition==== It is conceived as an abstract machine that can be in one of a finite number of states. The machine is in only one state at a time; the state it is in at any given time is called the current state. It can change from one state to another when initiated by a triggering event or condition, this is called a transition. ====References==== http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite-state_machine =====discrete Keyword 3 Phase 2===== Matrix Multiplication ====Definition==== The multiplication of two or more matrices to produce a new matrix. ====References==== http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_multiplication#Powers_of_matrices * Reference 1 * Reference 2 * Reference 3 ====Demonstration==== Suppose [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/9/4/4/9447513f3529a8ead62db16b82193913.png|MM1]] using the inner product approach: [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/e/e/f/eef4d042bc504d3c179196117abdaf3b.png|InnerMM]] while the outer product approach gives: [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/0/5/0/050601f68666d7f0bcbab99d32570146.png|OuterMM]] Source Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_multiplication#Algorithms_for_efficient_matrix_multiplication
