P-Lingua is a programming language for membrane computing which aims to be a standard to define P systems. It and its associated tools have been developed by members of the Research Group on Natural Computing, at the University of Seville, Spain.

We provide P-Lingua and its associated tools as a free and reusable package for the development of software/hardware applications capable of simulate P system computations.

In order to implement this idea, a Java library called pLinguaCore has been produced as a software framework for cell-like and tissue-like P system simulators. It is able to handle input files (either in XML format or in P-Lingua format) defining P systems from a number of different supported models. Moreover, the library includes several built-in simulators for each model. For the sake of software portability, pLinguaCore can export a P system definition to any convenient output format (currently XML format and binary format are available). PLinguaCore is not a closed product, but it can be extended to accept new input or output formats and also new models or simulators.

There are several applications in development using P-Lingua. This website is available to download the libraries and applications, as well as provides technical information. In addition, this site aims to be a meeting point for users and developers through the use of forums.
