Topics in the theory of DNA computing

TL;DR: The theoretical developments of DNA computing are demonstrated by discussing a number of selected topics and an introduction to the basic structure of DNA and the basic DNA processing tools is given.

Basic notions of reaction systems

TL;DR: Natural Computing is a general term referring to computing taking place in nature and computing inspired by nature as mentioned in this paper, and it is used to describe both the original/classical point of view of computation as calculation and to account for (be inspired by) processes, e.g., life processes.

Basic notions of reaction systems

TL;DR: This chapter discusses how to free the theory of computation from classical paradigms (the ongoing transition to the so called “non-classical computation”) in order to explore a much broader notion of computation.

A Multicriteria Dial‐a‐Ride Problem with an Ecological Measure and Heterogeneous Vehicles

TL;DR: A new and general model for the transportation of persons is investigated that is based on an optimal timing algorithm that computes pickup and delivery dates when the requests are sequenced on the vehicles.

Forbidding and enforcing in membrane computing

TL;DR: By using forbidding-enforcing in membranes, families of languages that cannot be defined by any fe-system can be generated and it is shown that SAT can be solved in a constant time (at price of using an exponential space).

Formal language theory and DNA: an analysis of the generative capacity of specific recombinant behaviors.

TL;DR: This study initiates the formal analysis of the generative power of recombinational behaviors in general by means of a new generative formalism called a splicing system and a significant subclass of these languages, which are shown to coincide with a class of regular languages which have been previously studied in other contexts: the strictly locally testable languages.
