Finite Dynamical Systems: A Mathematical Framework for Computer Simulation

A. S. Jarrah and R. Laubenbacher

A chapter in Mathematical Modeling, Simulation, Visualization and e-Learning, 2008, pp 343-358 from Springer

Abstract: Dynamical systems over finite fields provide a natural mathematical framework for interaction-based computer simulation of complex systems. This paper provides an introduction to a theory of these systems. Motivating examples of agent-based simulations are given.
