Abstract

This paper provides a historical account of Networks of Evolutionary Processors (NEPs), a bioinspired model of computation based in the behaviour of colonies of cells. NEPs, introduced in (Castellanos et al., 2001), consist of several processors performing molecular operations, which are placed in an underlying graph. In the last years, NEPs have demonstrated their generating and accepting power, as well as a good capacity for solving hard computational problems. Whereas complexity results support the accuracy of the framework, different variants have been introduced in order to achieve several computational properties. In the future, NEPs can also be used as a model for research in other fields.
