We study the computational power of generalized P colony automata and show how it is in uenced by the capacity of the system (the number of objects inside the cells of the colony) and the types of programs which are allowed to be used (restricted and unrestricted com-tape and all-tape programs, or programs allowing any kinds of rules).

We investigate the possibility of the deterministic parsing (that is, parsing without backtracking) of languages characterized by (generalized) P colony automata. We de ne a class of P colony automata satisfying a property which resembles the LL(k) property of context-free grammars, and study the possibility of parsing the...
