Abstract

Reaction systems are a model for the investigation of processes carried out by biochemical reactions in living cells. A reaction system consists of a set of reactions which transform a current system’s state (a set of entities) into the successor state. In this paper we investigate which entities are actually relevant from the point of view of generating dynamic processes through such state transformations.
