DNA computing is an unconventional method for parallel computation. It is a technique proposed for finding a solution to intractable computational problems. A computational hard problem in which the time complexity can increase exponentially with problem size. This work develops a new DNA-exploring model to solve a minimum vertex cover problem (MVCP). This DNA processing model solves the MVCP in polynomial time calculation.
