The present volume contains a selection of papers presented at the Seventh Workshop on
Membrane Computing, WMC7, which took place in Leiden, The Netherlands, during July 17 …

For the purpose of applying membrane computing as a global optimization technique, a bio-
inspired algorithm based on membrane computing (BIAMC) is proposed to solve both …

Tissue P systems with evolutional communication (symport/antiport) rules are computational
models inspired by biochemical systems consisting of multiple individuals living and …

Membrane systems are a new class of distributed and parallel model of computation
inspired by the subdivision of living cells into compartments delimited by membranes. Their …

We establish a relationship between two formalisms used in describing biological systems.
We translate some notions from the ambient calculus into the formalism of membrane …

The mutual mobile membrane systems represent a variant of mobile membrane systems in
which the endocytosis and exocytosis work whenever the involved membranes “agree” on …

A variant of tissue-like P systems is known as monodirectional tissue P systems, where
objects only have one direction to move between two regions. In this article, a special kind of …

We investigate the enhanced mobile membranes, a new class of mobile membrane system
in which new rules are introduced. The contextual evolution rules describe how an object …

Operations with membranes are essential both in brane calculi as well as in membrane
computing. In this paper, we attempt to express six basic operations of brane calculi, viz …
