Cellular Automata

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Cellular Automata for Research and Industry, ACRI 2006, held in Perpignan, France in September 2006. The 53 revised full papers and 19 revised poster papers presented together with 6 invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from around 100 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on CA theory and implementation, computational theory, population dynamics, physical modeling, urban, environmental and social modeling, traffic and boolean networks, multi-agents and robotics, crypto and security, dynamical systems, as well as crowds and cellular automata.
