P-Sets and Applications of Internal-Outer Data Circle

2010
P-sets (packet sets) which come from finite general sets have new mathematic structure. Introduced to dynamic characteristic, P-sets are composed of internal P-sets \(X^{\bar{F}}\) (internal packet set \(X^{\bar{F}}\)) and outer P-sets X F (outer packet sets X F ). P-sets have dynamic characteristics.
