Simulating 3-Symbol Turing Machines with SIMD||DNA

Authors: David Doty and Aaron Ong

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 221, 1st Symposium on Algorithmic Foundations of Dynamic Networks (SAND 2022)

Abstract

SIMD||DNA [Wang et al., 2019] is a model of DNA strand displacement allowing parallel in-memory computation on DNA storage. We show how to simulate an arbitrary 3-symbol space-bounded Turing machine with a SIMD||DNA program, giving a more direct and efficient route to general-purpose information manipulation on DNA storage than the Rule 110 simulation of Wang, Chalk, and Soloveichik [Wang et al., 2019]. We also develop software (https://github.com/UC-Davis-molecular-computing/simd-dna) that can simulate SIMD||DNA programs and produce SVG figures.
