Small Universal Spiking Neural P Systems with Astrocytes

Spiking neural P systems with astrocytes (SNPA systems, for short) are a class of distributed parallel computing devices inspired from the way neurons communicate by means of spikes and the functioning of astrocytes control the spikes passing along synapses. Looking for small universal computing devices is a classical researching topic in computer science, whose aim is to construct computationally universal computing devices using less resources. In this work. we investigate small universal SNPA systems as both devices computing functions and devices generating sets of numbers. Specifically, SNPA systems with 77 neurons and 21 astrocytes can compute any Turing computable function; and it is obtained that 67 neurons and 18 astrocytes can generate the family of Turing computable numbers.
