A P system, also known as a membrane computing system, is a computational framework inspired by the biological structure and functioning of living cells. Proposed by Gheorghe Păun in the late 1990s, P systems aim to model the parallel processing capabilities of biological systems through the use of membranes to encapsulate and process information. ### Key Components of P Systems: 1. **Membranes:** The fundamental elements of a P system, membranes are used to create a hierarchical structure.
