Abstract

In this paper we investigate how bimolecular automatons encrypt information. Biomolecular automaton based on DNA computing is a kind of nano-computer. This DNA computing model is different from the original DNA computing for it can realize the basic functions of automaton. Having both advantages of DNA computing and electrical computing, biomolecular automaton can improve the practicability of DNA computer and extend the application of DNA computing. For the finite automaton can be used to encrypt the information, the biomolecular automaton with special coding can realize this function too. Here we introduce a coding scheme of bimolecular automatons for information encryption.
