A Multiset Rule Based Petri net Algorithm for the Synthesis and Secretary Pathway of Plasma Membrane - Glycoprotein

Membrane computing is a branch of Natural computing aiming to abstract computing models from thestructure and functioning of the living cell. A comprehensive introduction to membrane computing ismeant to offer both computer scientists and non-computer scientists an up-to date overview of the field. Inthis paper, we consider a uniform way of treating objects and rules in P Systems with the help of Multisetrewriting rules. Here the synthesis and secretary pathway of glycoprotein in epithelial cells of smallintestine is considered as an example. A natural and finite link is explored between Petri nets andmembrane Computing. A Petri net (PN) algorithm combined with P Systems is implemented for thesynthesis and secretary pathway of Glycoprotein. To capture the compartmentalization of P Systems, thePetri net is extended with localities and to show how to adopt the notion of a Petri net process accordingly.The algorithm uses symbolic representations of multisets of rules to efficiently generate all the regionsassociated with the membrane. In essence, this algorithm is built from transport route sharing a set ofplaces modeling the availability of system resources. The algorithm when simulated shows a significantpathway of safe Petri nets.
