Automata – What is it?

The term "Automata" is derived from the Greek word "αὐτόματα" which means "self-
acting". An automaton (Automata in plural) is an abstract self-propelled computing
device which follows a predetermined sequence of operations automatically.
An automaton with a finite number of states is called a Finite Automaton (FA)
or Finite State Machine (FSM).
