Abstract :
In the paper, we present principles of an object-oriented programming language for Physarum polycephalum computing. Physarum polycephalum is a one-cell organism that can be used for developing a biological architecture of different abstract devices. Both, theoretical foundations and assumptions for a language specification are considered. Especially, we focus on selected approaches (ladder diagrams, Petri nets, and transition systems) enabling us to model behaviour of Physarum polycephalum in the created programming language.
