Population ecology mathematical models examine tumors not as an isolated collection of transformed individuals but as part of a dynamic society of interacting malignant and normal cells. This approach investigates the mechanisms by which a small clone of neoplastic cells is able to replace the much

✦ Synopsis
The main point of this paper is to show how ideas of control theory, automata theory and computer science can be applied to the field of oncology. We are stressing the modeling of three-dimensional tumor growth and the simulation of different kinds of tumor therap) (restricted energy supply, 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.
