Abstract

We introduce dynamical probabilistic P systems, a variant where probabilities associated to the rules change during the evolution of the system, as a new approach to the analysis and simulation of the behavior of complex systems. We define the notions for the analysis of the dynamics of these systems and we show an application for the investigation of the properties of the Brusselator (a simple scheme for the Belousov-Zhabothinskii reaction).

Work supported by the Italian Ministry of University (MIUR), under project PRIN-04 “Systems Biology: modellazione, linguaggi e analisi (SYBILLA)”.
