Treffer: Conversion between Number Systems in Membrane Computing.

The number system is the representation method of numbers, and number system conversion is the most basic function of a computing system. The decimal system is the most commonly used number system; however, it may not necessarily be the most suitable number system in a computing system. This paper investigates the conversion methods between different number systems and designs corresponding cells, such as P systems, to implement them. The P systems we designed include Π<subscript>10_2</subscript> and Π<subscript>2_10</subscript> to implement conversion between decimal and binary, Π<subscript>10_m</subscript> and Π<subscript>m_10</subscript> to implement conversion between decimal and m-base. The operation process of each P system was explained through examples, and their feasibility and effectiveness were verified through simulation software, UPSimulator. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
