Abstract

Problems associated with the treatment of digital images have several in-
teresting features from a bio-inspired point of view. One of them is that they can be
suitable for parallel processing, since the same sequential algorithm is usually applied in
different regions of the image. In this paper we report a work-in-progress of a hardware
implementation in Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) of a family of tissue-like
P systems which solves the segmentation problem in digital images.
