Abstract

Ambient calculus is an abstract model of the basic features of distribution and mobility of the computing and computation. The central notion of ambient calculus is that of a mobile ambient, which is a bounded place where a computation happens. It was shown that a P system with symbol-objects with membrane dissolution can be expressed in ambient calculus. We want to do here the converse work: to express ambient calculus in membrane computing. In this paper we present the first part of this work: we show that the Ethernet Network (local electronic computer network) can be expressed in terms of P systems with symbol-objects.
