Contribution
It presents a novel graph rewriting system based on local moves that is Turing complete and applicable to modeling computation in chemistry.
Findings
Proves Turing completeness of the system
Models chemical reactions as graph rewrites
Potential applications in algorithmic chemistry
Abstract
The chemical concrete machine is a graph rewriting system which uses only local moves (rewrites), seen as chemical reactions involving molecules which are graphs made up by 4 trivalent nodes. It is Turing complete, therefore it might be used as a model of computation in algorithmic chemistry.
