In this paper we continue previous studies on the computational efficiency of spiking neural P systems, under the assumption that some pre-computed resources of exponential size are given in advance. Specifically, we give a deterministic solution for each of two well known PSPACE-complete problems: QSAT and Q3SAT. In the case of QSAT, the answer to any instance of the problem is computed in a time which is linear with respect to both the number n of Boolean variables and the number m of clauses that compose the instance. As for Q3SAT, the answer is computed in a time which is at most cubic in the number n of Boolean variables.

Abstract

In this paper we continue previous studies on the computational efficiency of spiking neural P systems, under the assumption that some pre-computed resources of exponential size are given in advance. Specifically, we give a deterministic solution for each of two well known PSPACE-complete problems: QSAT and Q3SAT. In the case of QSAT, the answer to any instance of the problem is computed in a time which is linear with respect to both the number n of Boolean variables and the number m of clauses that compose the instance. As for Q3SAT, the answer is computed in a time which is at most cubic in the number n of Boolean variables.
