Membrane Computing after 25 Years.

The membrane computing research area was initiated in the fall of 1998 by Gheorghe Paun, and already in February 2003, the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) considered membrane computing as an emerging research front in computer science and paper [[1]] as a fast-breaking paper. 10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199542864.001.0001 10 Frisco P., Gheorghe M., Pérez-Jiménez M.J.. Applications of Membrane Computing in Systems and Synthetic BiologyEmergence, Complexity, Computation; Springer: Cham, Switzerland. The membrane computing area is already well developed, both at the theoretical level and in what concerns applications, while the mention of membrane computing as a topic in the Mathematics Subjects Classification 2020 by Mathematical Reviews and zbMATH indicates its maturity.
