We describe two extensions of P systems for the modelling of populations and ecosystems. They are the Minimal Probabilistic P systems (MPP systems) and the Attributed Probabilistic P systems (APP systems). We describe also two case studies in which the two formalisms have been applied to the study of real ecological systems. The first case study deals with the causes of the stability of European hybrid populations of water frogs. The second case study deals with social interactions and the establishment of dominance hierarchies in primates.

Abstract

We describe two extensions of P systems for the modelling of populations and ecosystems. They are the Minimal Probabilistic P systems (MPP systems) and the Attributed Probabilistic P systems (APP systems). We describe also two case studies in which the two formalisms have been applied to the study of real ecological systems. The first case study deals with the causes of the stability of European hybrid populations of water frogs. The second case study deals with social interactions and the establishment of dominance hierarchies in primates.
