Abstract
There has been an improved effort for about 20 years in studying the dynamical behaviour of discrete, iterative systems. The reason for this is probably that different (but conceptually similar) discrete models are presently of interest in various domains of science, such as: Physics (spin glass problems, see (10), (12), (14), for example), Chemistry (diffusion reactions (9)), Biomathematics (neural networks, genetic nets, (10), (11), (14), (18), (20)), Computer Science (pattern recognition, associative memories (7), (10), cellular automata (1), (2), (9), (19), (21), (22), (23), cellular arrays for systolic computation in V.L.S.I. systems (13), (15), (17), (19) and so on: see especially (4), (5), (6)).
