Abstract

Spiking neural P systems (SN P systems, for short) are a class of distributed parallel computing devices inspired by the way neurons communicate by means of electrical impulses or spikes. SN P systems with astrocytes are a new variant of SN P systems, where astrocytes are introduced to control the amount of spikes passing along synapses. In this work, we investigate the computation power of SN P systems with astrocytes with the rules in any neuron used in the exhaustive manner, that is, the enabled rule in any neuron should be used as many times as possible at any moment. Specifically, it is obtained that such SN P systems can compute/generate any set of Turing computable natural numbers.
