Abstract: Membrane computing is a recent area that belongs to natural computing. This field works on computational models based on nature's behavior to process the information. Recently, numerous models have been developed and implemented with this purpose. P-systems are the structures which have been defined, developed and implemented to simulate the behavior and the evolution of membrane systems which we find in nature. What we analyze in this paper is the power of the tools we currently have to simulate the randomness we find in nature. The main problem we face here, is trying to simulate non deterministic events by using deterministic tools. The goal we want to achieve is to propose an optimal method when simulating non deterministic processes. Talking about simulation of non deterministic method makes no sense when using deterministic tools; however we can get closer to the idea of non determinism by using more powerful randomness generators.

Keywords: P-systems, evolution rules application, non-determinism simulation, randomness in p-systems
