Abstract:
A time-varying distributed H system is a splicing system which has the following feature: at different moments one uses different sets of splicing rules. The number of these sets is called the degree of the system. The passing from a set of rules to another one is specified in a cycle. It is a well known fact that any formal language can be generated by a time-varying distributed H-system of degree at least 7. Here we prove that there are universal time-varying distributed H-systems of degree 2. The question of whether or not there are universal time-varying distributed H-systems of degree 1 remains open.

One-Degree-of-Freedom System
A one-degree-of-freedom system is defined by an independent variable that determines its state and behavior. One example of a one-degree-of-freedom system is a simple harmonic oscillator, such as a...
Linear time-invariant Systems
The input-output behavior of an LTI system can be fully defined by its response to an impulsive excitation at its input. Once this impulse response is known, the system's reaction to any other input can be calculated...
