Abstract
We present the properties of simple biological systems which are similar to the properties of computer structures that are used today. Biological computer structures can therefore be synthetized in these manners. In order to design such systems more straightforwardly, in silico approaches, i.e. computer modeling can be used. We present the basic steps for the design of biological computer structures among which modeling is described in details. Different models of potential biological computer structures can be established and their analysis can be made before in vivo realization. Here we present a sample model of such system and its analysis from the computer structure's viewpoint. In order to perform such analysis different metrics are introduced.
