Abstract

The "classical" model of P systems was introduced by Gheorghe P驴un in 1998; this model with symbol objects was shown to be computationally universal in [8], provided that catalysts and priorities of rules are used. We now show by reduction via register machines that the priorities may be omitted from the model without loss of computational power. As a consequence, several universality results for P systems in [10] are improved.
