New Choice for Small Universal Devices: Symport/Antiport P Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Symport/antiport P systems provide a very simple machinery inspired by corresponding operations in the living cell. It turns out that systems of small descriptional complexity are needed to achieve the universality by these systems. This makes them a good candidate for small universal devices replacing register machines for different simulations, especially when a simulating parallel machinery is involved. This article contains survey of these systems and presents different trade-offs between parameters.

Small Computationally Complete Symport/Antiport P Systems
It is known that P systems with symport/antiport rules simulate the register machines, i.e., they are computationally complete. Hence, due to the existence of universal register machines, there exist computationally complete subclasses of symport/antiport P systems with a number of rules limited by a constant. However, there was no estimation of this number in the literature. In this article, w...
متن کاملSmall Universal Tissue P Systems with Symport/Antiport Rules
In this note, we consider the problem of looking for small universal one-symbol tissue P systems with symport/antiport rules. It is proved that six cells suffice to generate any recursively enumerable set of natural numbers by such a onesymbol tissue P system with symport/antiport rules, under the restriction that only one channel is allowed between two cells or between a cell and the environme...
متن کاملSymport/Antiport P Systems with Three Objects Are Universal
The operations of symport and antiport, directly inspired from biology, are already known to be rather powerful when used in the framework of P systems. In this paper we confirm this observation with a quite surprising result: P systems with symport/antiport rules using only three objects can simulate any counter machine, while systems with only two objects can simulate any blind counter machin...
متن کاملP Systems with Symport/Antiport of Rules
Moving “instructions” instead of “data” using transport mechanisms inspired by biology is the basic idea of the computing device presented in this paper. Specifically, we propose a new class of P systems that use both evolution rules and symport/antiport rules. The idea of this kind of systems is the following: during a computation, symbol-objects (the “data”) evolve using evolution rules, but ...
متن کاملTowards a Characterization of P Systems with Minimal Symport/Antiport and Two Membranes
We prove that any set of numbers containing zero generated by symport/antiport P systems with two membranes and minimal cooperation is finite (for both symport/antiport P systems and for purely symport P systems). On the other hand, one additional object in the output membrane allows symport/antiport P systems with two membranes and minimal cooperation generate any recursively enumerable sets o...
