Linear and circular splicing systems. (5/1/95) ( dvi or postscript)
A revised version appeared in Proceedings of the 1st International Symposium on Intelligence in Neural and Biological Systems (May, 1996), 181-188.
This is a sketch of an earlier version of "Splicing in abstract families of languages", using a more ad hoc method. It is similar to the treatment found in the Handbook of Formal Languages chapter by Head, Paun, Pixton.
