چکیده

We present the model of tumour induced angiogenesis that apart from predominating phenomena, as influence of VEGF, includes newly discovered factors such as Dll4/Notch signalling and remodelling processes. The Cellular Automata approach is employed to model cellular and intracellular processes that occur in cancer tissue and surroundings. Vascular system is modelled by using the Graph of Cellular Automata, which combines graph theory with the Cellular Automata paradigm. Additionally, an outline of model verification method which uses graph descriptors is presented and exemplified.

A Novel Approach for Detecting Relationships in Social Networks Using Cellular Automata Based Graph Coloring

All the social networks can be modeled as a graph, where each roles as vertex and each relationroles as an edge. The graph can be show as G = [V;E], where V is the set of vertices and E is theset of edges. All social networks can be segmented to K groups, where there are members in eachgroup with same features. In each group each person knows other individuals and is in touch ...

An Ant-Colony Optimization Clustering Model for Cellular Automata Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks

High efficient routing is an important issue for the design of wireless sensor network (WSN) protocols to meet the severe hardware and resource constraints. This paper presents an inclusive evolutionary reinforcement method. The proposed approach is a combination of Cellular Automata (CA) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) techniques in order to create collision-free trajectories for every agent...

Using network descriptors for comparison of vascular systems created by tumour-induced angiogenesis

Abstract. We check-out a set of statistical network descriptors for classification of various vascular networks generated by model of Tumour Induced Angiogenesis. In the model two spatio-temporal scales representing global behaviour of vascular network and local processes in surround tissue are clearly separated. The grid of cellular automata (CA) corresponds to both healthy and cancerous tissu...

Towards a Two-Scale Cellular Automata Model of Tumour-Induced Angiogenesis

This paper presents a new framework for modelling tumourinduced angiogenesis. Classical Cellular Automata approach is employed to model cellular and intracellular processes that occur in cancer tissue and neighbourhood. Vascular system is modelled by using Graph of Cellular Automata, which combines graph theory with Cellular Automata paradigm. A new model is proposed as a starting point for fur...

Generic parity generators design using LTEx methodology: A quantum-dot cellular automata based approach

Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) is a prominent paradigm that is considered to continue its dominance in thecomputation at deep sub-micron regime in nanotechnology. The QCA realizations of five-input Majority Voter based multilevel parity generator circuits have been introduced in recent years. However, no attention has been paid towards the QCA instantiation of the generic (n-bit) even and ...
