| description | As a novel biological computing device, the Spiking Neural P system (SNPS) has powerful computing potential. The application of SNPS in the field of arithmetic operation has been a hot research topic in recent years. Researchers have proposed methods and systems for implementing basic arithmetic operations using SNPS. This paper studies four basic arithmetic operations, improves the parallelization of addition and multiplication methods, and designs more effective natural number addition and multiplication SNPS, as well as SNPS for subtraction and for division of natural numbers based on multiple subtractions. The effectiveness of the proposed SNPS is verified by example. Compared with the same kind of SNPS, for the addition operation the number of neurons used in our system is reduced by 50% and the time overhead is reduced by 33%, while for the multiplication operation the number of neurons is reduced by 40%. |
