Abstract

We introduce a variant of purely communicating membrane systems where the rules are directly assigned to the membranes and not to the regions as this is usually observed in the area of membrane systems. Multisets of promotors and inhibitors inside and outside the membrane control the application of rules assigned to a membrane. For the application of rules leading from one configuration of the system to the succeeding configuration we consider a sequential model and do not use the model of maximal parallelism. We will show that for such systems with only one membrane and using only singleton promoting and/or inhibiting multisets, we already obtain universal computational power.
