Simulating multi-level dynamics of antimicrobial resistance in a membrane computing model

2018-04-23

Abstract excerpt

Membrane Computing is a bio-inspired computing paradigm, whose devices are the so-called membrane systems or P systems. The P system designed in this work reproduces complex biological landscapes in the computer world. It uses nested “membrane-surrounded entities” able to divide, propagate and die, be transferred into other membranes, exchange informative material according to flexible rules, mutate and being sele...
