is automata theory important in computer science? what are example of real applications of automata and formal languages?

do they have anything to do with software development and verifications?

kind regards

Very short.

Presumably, you're looking for something to hand in with minimal effort.

Verifications? What is "verifications"?

You're getting a PhD?

Verifications? What is "verifications"?

means of checking whether the system fully complies with the requirements

You're getting a PhD?

no. i'm getting MSc.

Wow. Mathematical verification of requirements. Didn't we kinda get over 'proving software correct' in the late 70s?

Maybe. I think there are still some mission-critical things that they are unwilling to use Turing-complete languages for.
