%N A003430 Number of unlabeled series-parallel posets (i.e., generated by unions and sums) with n nodes.
%C A003430 Number of oriented series-parallel networks with n elements. A series configuration is a unit element or an ordered concatenation of two or more parallel configurations and a parallel configuration is a unit element or a multiset of two or more series configurations. a(n) is the number of series or parallel configurations with n elements. The sequences A007453 and A007454 enumerate respectively series and parallel configurations. - _Andrew Howroyd_, Dec 01 2020
