Abstract. We will show how padding techniques can be applied on onedimensional cellular automata by proving a transfer theorem on complexity classes (how one inclusion of classes i...
If one wishes to find out whether a computational problem over discrete data is solvable or how complex it is, the classical approach is to represent the discrete objects in quest...
In recent years generalized acceptance criteria for different nondeterministic computation models have been examined. Instead of the common definition where an input word is said...
The virtual ant introduced by Langton [Physica D 22 (1986) 120] has an interesting behavior, which has been studied in several contexts. Here we give a construction to calculate a...
We present a direct universal P system based on splicing. Our approach differs from those shown in previous papers as the P system we construct takes as input an encoding of anothe...
