Time-bounded Kolmogorov complexity is a modified version of Kolmogorov complexity where the space of programs to be searched for a solution areis confined to only programs that can run within asome pre-defined number of steps.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Hirahara |first=Shuichi |last2=Kabanets |first2=Valentine |last3=Lu |first3=Zhenjian |last4=Oliveira |first4=Igor C. |date=2024 |title=Exact Search-To-Decision Reductions for Time-Bounded Kolmogorov Complexity |url=https://drops.dagstuhl.de/entities/document/10.4230/LIPIcs.CCC.2024.29 |journal=39th Computational Complexity Conference (CCC 2024) |language=en |publisher=Schloss Dagstuhl – Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik |pages=29:1–29:56 |doi=10.4230/LIPIcs.CCC.2024.29}}</ref>
