Using the Formal Framework for P Systems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 8340))

Abstract

In this article we focus on the model called the formal framework for P systems. This model provides a descriptional language powerful enough to represent in a simple way, via a strong bisimulation, most of the variants of P systems. The article presents a series of concrete examples of the application of the formal framework in order to understand, extend, compare and explain different models of P systems leading to new research ideas and open problems.
