I'm trying to figure out what 'tree automata' is all about, but information
is scarce or generally too theoretical for me.


I would really appreciate if someone could explain (in plain english):


(1) basic summary of what they are


(2) what their main strengths are


(3) what kinds of applications benefit / require them?


(4) how conceptually 'difficult' you think they are (i.e. is this truly
difficult or just always expressed in a very formal manner?)


Thanks very much,


Paul J
