Description for Simulating Complex Systems by Cellular Automata
Paperback. Deeply rooted in mathematics and computer science, Cellular Automata (CA) act as an intuitive modeling paradigm for complex systems. This volume provides an up-to-date introduction to Cellular Automata by delving into the underlying theory, applications, and software. Editor(s): Hoekstra, Alfons G.; Kroc, Jiri; Sloot, Peter M. A. Series: Understanding Complex Systems. Num Pages: 406 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PDE; PHS; UGK; UYQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 21. Weight in Grams: 623.
Deeply rooted in fundamental research in Mathematics and Computer Science, Cellular Automata (CA) are recognized as an intuitive modeling paradigm for Complex Systems. Already very basic CA, with extremely simple micro dynamics such as the Game of Life, show an almost endless display of complex emergent behavior. Conversely, CA can also be designed to produce a desired emergent behavior, using either theoretical methodologies or evolutionary techniques. Meanwhile, beyond the original realm of applications - Physics, Computer Science, and Mathematics – CA have also become work horses in very different disciplines such as epidemiology, immunology, sociology, and finance. ...
