Investigates wave processes in one and two spatial dimensions by combining analytical studies on simplified systems with computer simulation surveys of more complicated models. Stresses dependence of wave characteristics on the properties of the excitable medium. Includes an extensive appendix on super-computer techniques for simulating three-dimensional excitable media.
