This links the asymptotic morphisms directly to Thomsen's non-stable definition of k-theory in the C* algebra case. A result on composition of asymptotic morphisms is also given.LaTex, approx 14pagesOperator AlgebrasFunctional Analysis46K05Pointwise bounded asymptotic morphisms and Thomsen's non-stable k-theorytext
