The signal tile assembly model(STAM) describes a signaled tile self assembly process that enriches the tile assembly paradigm with improved capabilities and allows tile assembly to more closely emulate biological and natural processes.
Signaled glue activation was introduced for the purpose of allowing supertiles to take on new identities or roles once assembled [1], so that supertile interactions as described in hierarchical models such as the Two-Handed Assembly Model (2HAM) can simulate the interactions of individual tiles.
The generalized model presented here has been designed to take into consideration a DNA implementation of all aspects of signaled assembly: binding, signaling, and glue activation or deactivation.
