Randomized Automata for Isotropic Modelling of two- and Three-Dimensional Waves And Spatiotemporal Chaos in Excitable Media

In the present volume, a large variety of excitable media in chemistry, physics, biology and even astronomy is presented. This volume also contains a number of tools for the modelling of wave propagation in such media. Among these tools, cellular automata have proven for a long time to show a number of advantages: they are intuitively appealing, being easily described and understood, they can easily be programmed and they run relatively fast on a computer.
