Abstract
In this chapter — which is basically technical — we present two main tools used to design Chaitin computers and consequently to establish upper bounds: the extension of the Kraft condition (see Theorem 2.8) to arbitrary r.e. sets and relativized computation. New formulae, closely analogous to expressions in classical information theory, are derived.
