Abstract

Grid-shaped cellular models have gained popularity as an effective approach to understand physical systems. Despite their usefulness to describe complex behavior, many cellular models require large amounts of compute time, mainly due to its synchronous nature. Besides this, cellular models do not describe adequately most of existing physical systems whose nature is asynchronous. In this tutorial we discuss different advanced methods for modeling and simulating cellular models. We introduce the main characteristics of the Cell-DEVS formalism, and show how to model cell spaces in an asynchronous environment.
