Abstract
The description of complex systems by means of logical variables is a method which allows arriving rapidly at a qualitative understanding of that system [1,2,3]. Such an approach offers a complementary tool to the classical continuous formalism which is more limited in the number of state variables it can handle and is very sensitive to the nonlinear character of the kinetic differential equations. To the reader who is not familiar with the kinetic logic formalization of a model, we give here a short introduction.
