Nonlinear Dynamics Perspective Wolfram's New Kind of Science

This novel book introduces cellular automata from a rigorous nonlinear dynamics perspective. It supplies the missing link between nonlinear differential and difference equations to discrete symbolic analysis. The book provides a scientifically sound and original analysis, and classifications of the empirical results presented in Wolfram's monumental "New Kind of Science." Contents: Threshold of Complexity; Universal Neuron; Predicting the Unpredictable. Key Features A compilation of papers that appeared in the International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos Contains a highly readable, self-contained introduction Includes hundreds of color illustrations Readership: Graduate students, academics and researchers in nonlinear dynamics, computer science and complexity theory.Chua, Leon O. is the author of 'Nonlinear Dynamics Perspective Wolfram's New Kind of Science ', published 2006 under ISBN 9789812569769 and ISBN 9812569766.
