Hi CA-Group,

I am an economist working on the interaction of bounded rational
individuals in evolutionary games and try to model such a population
as a cellular automaton.

Since CAs are almost unknown in economics, my information
about the subject is rather limited. (I've got the book by
Wolfram: `Theory and Applications of CA' and the one by Gutowitz: CA.)

So I would appreciate very much if I could get some help on
the following questions:

1) Is there a recent survey on the main mathematical results in CA-
    Theory (one/two-dimensional, deterministic/stochastic)?

2) Is there any work on the relationship CAs-(random) Boolean networks
    with arbitrary neigbourhood structure?

3) Has there been any extension/connection of CAs to/with Lindenmayer-
    systems?

I am thankful for every hint!
