Abstract

We introduce and examine two variants of networks of reaction systems, called communicating reaction systems with direct communication, where the reaction systems send products or reactions to each other. We show that these types of networks of reaction systems can be obtained by simple mappings from single reaction systems. We also discuss some aspects of communication within these networks, and suggest open problems for future research.
