Abstract
We define the class of the linear systems whose solution is expressible as a tuple of nondeterministic regular expressions when they are interpreted as trees of actions rather than as sets of sequences. We precisely characterize those systems that have a regular expression as "canonical" solution, and show that any regular expression can be obtained as a canonical solution of a system of the defined class.
