Synopsis

Thisvolumecollectsthepapersselectedforpresentationatthe9thInternational Conference on Cellular Automata for Research and Industry (ACRI 2010), held in Ascoli Piceno (Italy), September 21-24, 2010. ACRI conferences have been o?ering since 1994 a biennial scienti?c meeting to both scientists and innovation managersin academia and industriy to express and discuss their viewpoints on current and future trends, challenges, and sta- of-the-art solutions to various problems in the ?elds of arts, biology, chemistry, communication,ecology,economy,engineering,networks,physics, socialscience, and tra?c control. ACRI 2010 was organized by the Complex Systems and - ti?cial Intelligence (CSAI) research center of the University of Milano-Bicocca as a forum for the presentation and discussion of specialized results as well as general contributions to the growth of the cellular automata approach and its application. Cellular automata represent a very powerful approach to the study of spatio-temporal systems where complex phenomena are built up out of many simple localinteractions. The ACRI conferenceserieswas?rstorganizedin Italy (ACRI1994inRende,ACRI1996inMilan,andACRI1998inTrieste),andafter having moved to other Europeanand international settings, this year came back to Italy: ACRI 2000 in Karlsruhe (Germany), ACRI 2002 in Geneva (Switz- land), ACRI 2004 in Amsterdam (The Netherlands), ACRI 2006 in Perpignan (France), and ACRI 2008 in Yokohama (Japan). In order to give a perspective in which both theoretical and applicational - pectsofcellularautomatacontributetothegrowthofthearea,thisbookmirrors the structure of the conference, groupingthe 74 papers into two main parts.

About this title

Product Description

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Cellular Automata for Research and Industry, ACRI 2010, held in Ascoli Piceno, Italy, in September 2010. The first part of the volume contains 39 revised papers that were carefully reviewed and selected from the main conference; they are organized according to six main topics: theoretical results on cellular automata, modeling and simulation with cellular automata, CA dynamics, control and synchronization, codes and cryptography with cellular automata, cellular automata and networks, as well as CA-based hardware. The second part of the volume comprises 35 revised papers dedicated to contributions presented during ACRI 2010 workshops on theoretical advances, specifically asynchronous cellular automata, and challenging application contexts for cellular automata: crowds and CA, traffic and CA, and the international workshop of natural computing.
