Description :

This book focuses on a challenging application field of cellular automata pattern formation in biological systems such as the growth of microorganisms dynamics of cellular tissue and tumors and formation of pigment cell patterns. This book focuses on a challenging application field of cellular automata pattern formation in biological systems such as the growth of microorganisms dynamics of cellular tissue and tumors and formation of pigment cell patterns. While there are various books treating cellular automaton modeling this interdisciplinary work is the first one covering biological applications the book is divided into three parts part i deals with general principles theories and models of pattern formation part ii examines cellular automaton modeling and part iii explains various . With its accessible presentation and interdisciplinary approach cellular automaton modeling of biological pattern formation is suitable for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in mathematical biology biological modeling and biological computing.
