Abstract

In this paper we present a version of mobile ambients, called parMA, having a weak form of replication and a parallel semantics. We investigate how parMA can solve intractable problems in a polynomial number of computational steps. We use parMA to give a semiuniform solution to a well-known strong NP-complete problem, namely to the Boolean satisfiability problem (SAT).
