Learning outcomes
The course exhibits several methodologies to model phenomena occurring in nature by means of discrete mathematical tools and computational systems. The goal is to develop the ability of the student to master different approaches of discrete biological modeling, along the presentation of the state of the art and of the most recent problematics. Basic concepts (of mathematics, computer science, biology) are recalled, to better understand some traditional mathematical models, algorithms of natural computing, and biological networks, proposed along with a few case studies.
Program
Introduction to different classes of models, and to discrete models
Fibonacci numbers and golden section in nature
Differential biological models, and recurrence equations
