SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This book contains the lectures given at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on `Cellular Automata and Cooperative Systems', held at Les Houches, France, from June 22 to July 2, 1992. The book contains contributions by mathematical and theoretical physicists and mathematicians working in the field of local interacting systems, cellular probabilistic automata, statistical physics, and complexity theory, as well as the applications of these fields.
