	abstract = {In this paper, we show a new example of bridging Algebraic Topology,
Membrane Computing and Digital Images. In [24], a new algorithm for thinning multi-
dimensional black and white digital images by using cell complexes was presented. Such
cell complexes allow a discrete partition of the space and the algorithm preserves topolog-
ical and geometrical properties of the image. In this paper, we present a parallel adapta-
tion of such algorithm to P systems, by introducing some concepts of Algebraic Topology
in the Membrane Computing framework. The chosen model for the implementation is
tissue-like P systems with promoters, inhibitors and priorities.},
