Product Description: This volume refers to the formal description of mobility in computer science, using p-calculus, ambient calculus, bioambients, brane calculi, and systems of mobile membranes. Concepts are supported by examples and exercises, which makes it suitable for relevant courses.

Product Description: Presents new mathematical and computational models as well as statistical methods for the solution of fundamental problems in the biosciences. Describes how to find regularities among empirical data, as well as conceptual models and theories.

Product Description: Membrane computing is a branch of natural computing which investigates computing models abstracted from the structure and functioning of living cells and from their interactions in tissues or higher-order biological structures. The models considered, called membrane systems (P systems), are parallel, distributed computing models, processing multisets of symbols in cell-like compartmental architectures...read more
