Abstract: We focus on description of disorder in a system which is composed of a large number of two level subsystems using the cellular automata formalism. We introduce parameters which can be used as a measure of disorder spreading in such a complex system. These parameters are defined via the entropy and we show their usefulness for description of disorder in the system discussed.
