For more details on this topic, see Register machine.van Emde Boas (1990) includes all machines of this type in one category (group, class, collection) -- "the register machine".

And the most primitive embodiment of a "counter machine" is sometimes called the "Minsky machine".

“Grandparents can be role models about areas that may not be significant to young children directly but that can teach them about patience and courage when we are ill, or handicapped by problems of aging.
