Summary: Adleman wrote the first paper in which it was demonstrated that DNA (Deoxyriboa Nucleic Acid) strands could be applied for dealing with solutions to an instance of the NP-complete Hamiltonian path problem (HPP). Liton wrote the second paper in which it was shown that the Adleman techniques could also be used to solving the NP-complete satisfiability (SAT) problem (the first NP-complete problem). Adleman and his co-authors proposed sticker for enhancing the Adleman-Lipton model. In the paper, it is proved how to apply sticker in the sticker-based model for constructing the solution space of DNA for the set-splitting problem and how to apply DNA operations in the Adleman-Lipton model to solve that problem from the solution space of sticker.
