The concept of 2DFAs, originated by [[Michael O. Rabin|Rabin]] and [[Dana Scott|Scott]] in their 1959 seminal work "Finite automata and their decision problems", was in 1997 generalized to [[quantum computing]] by [[John Watrous (computer scientist)|John Watrous]]'s "On the Power of 2-Way Quantum Finite State Automata", in which he demonstrates that these machines can recognize nonregular languages and so are more powerful than DFAs.
