Abstract

In this article we consider insertion-deletion P systems inserting or deleting one symbol in one or two symbol(s) left context (more precisely of size (1,2,0;1,1,0) and (1,1,0;1,2,0)). We show that computational completeness can be achieved by using only 3 membranes in a tree-like structure. Hence we obtain a trade-off between the sizes of contexts of insertion and deletion rules and the number of membranes sufficient for computational completeness.
