Parallel Cellular Automata (PCA) previously has been employed for optimizing bi-objective reservoir operation, where one release is used to meet both objectives. However, if a single release can only be used for one objective, meaning two separate sets of releases are needed, the method is not applicable anymore. In this paper, Multi-Step Parallel Cellular Automata (MSPCA) has been developed fo...

we prove that if $m$ is a monoid and $a$ a finite set with more than one element‎, ‎then the residual finiteness of $m$ is equivalent to that of the monoid consisting of all cellular automata over $m$ with alphabet $a$‎.

quantum-dot cellular automata (qca) are a promising nanotechnology to implement digital circuits at the nanoscale. devices based on qca have the advantages of faster speed, lower power consumption, and greatly reduced sizes. in this paper, we are presented the circuits, which generate random numbers in qca. random numbers have many uses in science, art, statistics, cryptography, gaming, gamblin...

image segmentation is an important task in image processing and computer vision which attract many researchers attention. there are a couple of information sets pixels in an image: statistical and structural information which refer to the feature value of pixel data and local correlation of pixel data, respectively. markov random field (mrf) is a tool for modeling statistical and structural inf...
