Probabilistic Cellular Automata Theory, Applications and Future Perspectives / edited by Pierre-Yves Louis, Francesca R. Nardi.

This book explores Probabilistic Cellular Automata (PCA) from the perspectives of statistical mechanics, probability theory, computational biology and computer science. PCA are extensions of the well-known Cellular Automata models of complex systems, characterized by random updating rules. Thanks to...
