Cellular automata are discrete, lattice-based models in which simple local interactions give rise to intricate global behaviour. As a cornerstone of dynamical systems theory, these models have been ...

Well all know cellular automata from Conway’s Game of Life which simulates cellular evolution using rules based on the state of all eight adjacent cells. [Gavin] has been having fun playing with ...

Wolfram Research’s A New Kind of Science Explorer software kit provides an easy, animated introduction to the book A New Kind of Science, by company founder Stephen Wolfram. He claims that cellular ...

Let's start with a simple game, due to John Conway, called the Game of Life. Start with a grid of squares and color each square either black or white (dead or alive). Each square has eight neighbors, ...

In a new study published in Physical Review Letters, researchers used machine learning to discover multiple new classes of two-dimensional memories, systems that can reliably store information despite ...
