Abstract

In relation with spatio-temporal systems theory some regional analysis aspects were recently developed [6, 24] and well studied in continuous systems described by partial differential equations. The purpose of this paper is to give a comparative study of the regional controllability by means of cellular automata models. We show through various examples how the main features of regional controllability may be simply described and implemented by cellular automata approach. To solve this problem, we propose one of the most efficient evolutionary techniques based on genetic algorithms.
