9780792354932: Cellular Automata: A Parallel Model: 460

Sinossi

Cellular automata can be viewed both as computational models and modelling systems of real processes. This volume emphasizes the first aspect. In articles written by leading researchers, sophisticated massive parallel algorithms (firing squad, life, Fischer's primes recognition) are treated. Their computational power and the specific complexity classes they determine are surveyed, while some recent results in relation to chaos from a new dynamic systems point of view are also presented. This book should be of interest to specialists of theoretical computer science and the parallelism challenge.
