We continue an investigation into resource-bounded Kolmogorov complexity, which highlights the close connections between circuit complexity and Levin's time-bounded Kolmogorov complexity measure Kt (and other measures with a similar flavor), and also exploits derandomization techniques to provide new insights regarding Kolmogorov complexity. The Kolmogorov measures that have been introduced have many advantages over other approaches to defining resource-bounded Kolmogorov complexity. Here, we study the properties of other measures that arise naturally in this framework.The motivation for introducing yet more notions of resource-bounded Kolmogorov complexity are two-fold: 1) to demonstrate that other complexity measures such as branching-program size and formula size can also be discussed in terms of Kolmogorov complexity, and 2) to demonstrate that notions such as nondeterministic Kolmogorov complexity and distinguishing complexity also fit well into this framework.
