Mar 8, 2011 at 13:53 comment added kakaz @Joel David Hamkins - Thank You a lot! So in general it suggest that this class of machines is equivalent to TM without loops. If You think it is worth to write Your comment as answer I will accept it.

Mar 8, 2011 at 13:34 comment added Joel David Hamkins Kakaz, if the transition induces a partial order, then the machine cannot find itself in the same local configuration again after leaving it, since a partial order has no loops. It follows that the length of the whole computation is bounded by $|Q\times L|$, and so by running the computation for that long, you can solve the halting problem. Thus, these machines are very weak in computational power.

Mar 8, 2011 at 12:53 comment added kakaz @Joel David Hamkins - I am just curious if such class of TM is interesting. And I would be glad to see any reference on it. It is just free idea... "And the halting problem for such machines will be decidable" - is is about machines with (II) property or for more general machines set for which T(q,a) generates lattice (or possibly other algebraic) structure?

Mar 8, 2011 at 11:57 comment added Joel David Hamkins What kind of answer are you seeking? Such a TM cannot be universal, for example, since computation must stop very quickly. And the halting problem for such machines will be decidable, and even polytime decidable, for the same reason.
