Abstract
Dynamic behavior of a new class of information-processing 
systems called Cellular Neural Networks is investigated. In this paper we 
introduce a small parameter in the state equation of a cellular neural 
network and we seek for periodic phenomena. New approach is used for 
proving stability of a cellular neural network by constructing Lyapunov's 
majorizing equations. This algorithm is helpful for finding a map from 
initial continuous state space of a cellular neural network into discrete 
output. A comparison between cellular neural networks and cellular 
automata is made.
