Introducing a Space Complexity Measure for P Systems
Keywords:
membrane computing, complexity theory.Abstract
We define space complexity classes in the framework of membrane computing, giving some initial results about their mutual relations and their connection with time complexity classes, and identifying some potentially interesting problems which require further research.
