Characterizing Tractability by Tissue-Like P Systems
(Fénix Editora, 2009)
In the framework of cell–like membrane systems it is well known that the construction of exponential number of objects in polynomial time is not enough to efficiently solve NP–complete problems. Nonetheless, it may be ...

Graphics and P Systems: Experiments with JPLANT
(Fénix Editora, 2008)
The hand-made graphical representation of the configuration of a P system becomes a hard task when the number of membranes and objects increases. In this paper we present a new software tool, called JPLANT, for computing ...

Uniform Solution to QSAT Using Polarizationless Active Membranes
(Fénix Editora, 2006)
It is known that the satisfiability problem (SAT) can be solved a semi- uniform family of deterministic polarizationless P systems with active membranes with non-elementary membrane division. We present a double improvement ...

Handling Markov Chains with Membrane Computing
(Fénix Editora, 2006)
In this paper we approach the problem of computing the n–th power of the transition matrix of an arbitrary Markov chain through membrane computing. The proposed solution is described in a semi–uniform way in the framework ...

Polarizationless P Systems with Active Membranes Working in the Minimally Parallel Mode
(Fénix Editora, 2007)
We investigate the computing power and the efficiency of P systems with active membranes without polarizations, working in the minimally parallel mode. We prove that such systems are computationally complete and able to ...

A P System Modeling an Ecosystem Related to the Bearded Vulture
(Fénix Editora, 2008)
The Bearded Vulture is one of the rarest raptors in Europe and it is an endangered species. In this paper, we present a model of an ecosystem related with the Bearded Vulture which is located in the Catalan Pyrenees, by ...

Computing Backwards with P Systems
(Fénix Editora, 2009)
Searching all the configurations C′ such that produce a given configuration C, or, in other words, computing backwards in Membrane Computing is an extremely hard task. The current approximations are based in heavy hand-made ...
Presentation

On String Languages Generated by Spiking Neural P Systems
(Fénix Editora, 2006)
We continue the study of spiking neural P systems by considering these computing devices as binary string generators: the set of spike trains of halting computations of a given system constitutes the language generated ...
Presentation

Solving the Partition Problem by Using Tissue-like P Systems with Cell Division
(Fénix Editora, 2008)
Tissue-like P systems with cell division is a computing model in the framework of Membrane Computing that shares with the spiking neural P system model a similar biological inspiration. Namely, both models are based on ...
Presentation

Parallel Simulation of Probabilistic P Systems on Multicore Platforms
(Fénix Editora, 2012)
Ecologists need to model ecosystems to predict how they will evolve over time. Since ecosystems are non-deterministic phenomena, they must express the likelihood of events occurring, and measure the uncertainty of their ...
