Abstract
The main point of this contribution is to show how ideas of control theory, automata theory and computer science can be applied to the field of cancer research. We are stressing the modelling of three-dimensional tumor growth and the simulation of different kinds of tumor therapy (surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy). In the future it will be possible to schedule the optimized methods and time of tumor treatment by computer simulation prior to clinical therapy.Entities:
