Tau Leaping Stochastic Simulation Method in P Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Stochastic simulations based on the tau leaping method are applicable to well stirred chemical reaction systems occurring inside a single fixed volume. In this paper we propose a novel method, based on the tau leaping procedure, for the simulation of complex systems composed by several communicating regions. The new method is here applied to dynamical probabilistic P systems, which are characterized by several features suitable to the purpose of performing stochastic simulations distributed in many membranes. Conclusive remarks and ideas for future research are finally presented.

Stiffness in stochastic chemically reacting systems: The implicit tau-leaping method
We show how stiffness manifests itself in the simulation of chemical reactions at both the continuous-deterministic level and the discrete-stochastic level. Existing discrete stochastic simulation methods, such as the stochastic simulation algorithm and the ~explicit! tau-leaping method, are both exceedingly slow for such systems. We propose an implicit tau-leaping method that can take much lar...
متن کاملSlow Scale Tau-leaping Method.
For chemical systems involving both fast and slow scales, stiffness presents challenges for efficient stochastic simulation. Two different avenues have been explored to solve this problem. One is the slow-scale stochastic simulation (ssSSA) based on the stochastic partial equilibrium assumption. The other is the tau-leaping method. In this paper we propose a new algorithm, the slow-scale tau-le...
متن کاملEfficient Leaping Methods for Stochastic Chemical Systems
Well stirred chemical reaction systems which involve small numbers of molecules for some species have a stochastic behavior and can be modeled by a continuous time, discrete state Markov process. An exact method for simulating the time evolution of the system is the Stochastic Simulation Algorithm, but this method is extremely slow for realistic biological systems. We propose an adaptive leapin...
متن کاملThe numerical stability of leaping methods for stochastic simulation of chemically reacting systems.
Tau-leaping methods have recently been proposed for the acceleration of discrete stochastic simulation of chemically reacting systems. This paper considers the numerical stability of these methods. The concept of stochastic absolute stability is defined, discussed, and applied to the following leaping methods: the explicit tau, implicit tau, and trapezoidal tau.
متن کاملConsistency and Stability of Tau-Leaping Schemes for Chemical Reaction Systems
We develop a theory of local errors for the explicit and implicit tau-leaping methods for simulating stochastic chemical systems, and we prove that these methods are first-order consistent. Our theory provides local error formulae that could serve as the basis for future stepsize control techniques. We prove that, for the special case of systems with linear propensity functions, both tau-leapin...
