Abstract :
The discrete logarithm problem has been used as the basis of several cryptosystems. P systems are a cluster of distributed parallel computing devices in a biochemical type. This paper presents a P system with active membranes and strong priority to solve the discrete logarithm problem used in Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol. To the best of our knowledge, itpsilas the first time to solve the problem using P systems.
