Abstract
P systems are biologically inspired theoretical models of distributed and parallel computing. Hamilton path is a classical NP problem, recently, there are lots of methods to solve it. Today we give a new and efficient algorithm to this classic. This paper uses the improved P system with priority and promoters/inhibitors to give an efficient solution to Hamilton path problem. We give two examples to illustrate our method’s feasibility. We discuss future research problems also.
