Abstract

Spiking neural P systems (in short, SN P systems) is a class of distributed parallel computing models. Parallel computation of matrix operations has been supported on some new computing devices such as GPU, which provides a promising way to simulate the parallel computation of SN P systems. In this paper a matrix representation method of parallel computation for SN P systems is developed. In firing mechanism of SN P systems, the delay factor plays the role of controlling the receiving of spikes in neurons and the opportunity of emitting the spikes after the firing. In order to achieve the parallel computation of SN P systems, several matrices or vectors are introduced to decompose the firing mechanism of neurons. The parallel computation procedure of SN P systems can be achieved by the operations of the matrices or vectors. Two examples are used to illustrate the parallel computation procedure using the matrix operations.
