Abstract

P colony, which was introduced in [9], is an abstract computing device composed of independent agents, acting and evolving in a shared environment. In this paper we bring a new view to investigation of the behavior of the P colonies. The first part of the paper focuses on the modularity of the P colonies with checking rules. We group the agents into modules with specific function. In the second part of the paper we introduce improved results concerning the computational power of the P colonies with capacity one.
