Abstract :
The paper describes connections between two models dealing with communication protocols, the fraglet model and the formal language of multiset rewriting, which has very good inspiration from biology. By starting from similarities in their capabilities of modeling (indeed, their strong analogies in modeling biological systems), the programming language of the first model is translated into rule of the second model. Moreover, we propose an extended version of fraglets, namely crypto-fraglets, as an initial step towards the intent of enlarging the set of communication protocols that this framework is currently able to describe, model and simulate
