Abstract

P systems, introduced by Gh. Paun form a new class of distributed computing model. Several variants of P systems were already shown to be computationally universal. In this paper, we propose a new variant of P systems, P systems with membrane creation, in which some objects are productive and create membranes. This new variant of P systems is capable of solving the Hamiltonian Path Problem in linear time. We show that P systems with membrane creation are computationally complete.
