Membrane Computing, introduced by Gh. Paun at the end of 1998, is a relatively young branch of Natural Computing providing non-deterministic distributed parallel computing models whose computational devices are called membrane systems or P systems. These systems are inspired by some basic biological features, specifically by the structure and...

Spiking Neural P Systems (SN P Systems, for short) is a developing field within the universe of P Systems. New variants arise constantly as the study of their properties, such as computational completeness and computational efficiency, grows. Variants frequently incorporate new ingredients into the original model inspired by...

Cell division is a process that produces two or more cells from one cell by replicating the original chromosomes so that each daughter cell gets a copy of them. Membrane fission is a process by which a biological membrane is split into two new ones in suchamanner that the contents of the initial membrane get distributedor separated among the...

Membrane fission is a process by which a biological membrane is split into two new ones in the manner that the content of the initial membrane is separated and distributed between the new membranes. Inspired by this biological phenomenon, membrane separation rules were considered in membrane computing. In this work, we investigate cell-like P...

Spiking neural P systems (SN P systems for short) is a developing field within the P systems world. Inspired by the neurophysiological structure of the brain, these systems have been subjected to many extensions in recent years, many of them intended to "somewhat" incorporate more and more features inspired by the functioning of the living...

P systems are a class of distributed and parallel computation models inspired by the structure and the functioning of living cells. P systems have been used to solve computation hard problems, where the execution of each rule is completed in unit time (a global clock is assumed for timing and synchronizing the execution of rules). The...

Population Dynamics P systems are a type of multienvironment P systems that serve as a formal modeling framework for real ecosystems. The accurate simulation of these probabilisticmodels, e.g. with Direct distribution based on Consistent Blocks Algorithm, entails large run times. Hence, parallel platforms such as GPUs have been employed to...

PDP systems are a type of multienvironment P systems, which serve as a formal modeling framework for Population Dynamics. The accurate simulation of these probabilistic models entails large run times. Hence, parallel platforms such as GPUs has been employed to speedup the simulation. In 2012 [14], the rst GPU simulator of PDP systems was...

The classical definition of tissue P systems includes a distinguished alphabet with the special assumption that its elements are available in an arbitrarily large amount of copies. These objects are shared in a distinguished place of the system, called the environment. This ability of having infinitely many copies of some objects has...

Inspired by mitosis process and membrane fission processes, cell-like P systems with symport/antiport rules and membrane division rules or membrane separation rules have been introduced, respectively. These computation systems have two key features: the ability to have infinite copies of some objects (within an active environment) and to...

Classical membrane systems with symport/antiport rules observe the con- servation law, in the sense that they compute by changing the places of objects with respect to the membranes, and not by changing the objects themselves. In these systems the environment plays an active role because the systems not only send objects to the environment, but...

Membrane systems with symport/antiport rules compute by just moving objects among membranes, and not by changing the objects themselves. In these systems the environment plays an active role because, not only it receives objects from the system, but it also sends objects into the system. Actually, in this framework it is commonly assumed that...

The acceleration of P system simulations is required increasingly, since they are at the core of model verification and validation processes. For this purpose, GPU computing is an alternative to more classic approaches in Parallel Computing. It provides a manycore platform with a level of high parallelism at a low cost. In this paper, we survey...

Tissue P systems with cell separation where the communication among cells is performed by means of symport and antiport rules are able to efficiently solve computationally hard problems in a feasible time by a space-time trade off. Symport and antiport rules formally capture the cases where a number of chemical substances pass through a...
