Population Dynamics P systems refer to a formal framework for ecological modelling. The semantics of the model associates probabilities to rules, but at the same time, the model is based on P systems, so the rules are applied in a maximally parallel way. Since the success of the first model using this framework [5], initially called multienvironment probabilistic P systems, several simulation algorithms have been defined in order to better reproduce the behaviour of the ecosystems with the

BBB and DNDP are previous attempts, which define blocks of rules having the same left-hand side, but do not define a deterministic behaviour when different rules are competing for the same resources. That is, different blocks of rules present in their lefthand side common objects, being applicable at the same time. In this paper, we introduce a new simulation algorithm, called DCBA, which performs a proportional distribution of resources.
