Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Reaction systems are a formal model for processes inspired by the functioning of the living cell. These processes are determined by the iteration of the state transition functions of reaction systems, also called rs functions. In this paper we provide mathematical characterisations of rs functions implemented/defined by "minimal reaction systems'', i.e. reaction systems with reactions using the minimal number of reactants, or the minimal number of inhibitors, or the minimal number of resources (i.e. reactants and inhibitors together).
