Cellular automaton

A cellular automaton (pl. cellular automata , abbrev. CA ) is a discrete model studied in computability theory , mathematics , physics , complexity science , theoretical biology and microstructure modeling. Cellular automata are also called cellular spaces , tessellation automata , homogeneous structures , cellular structures , tessellation structures , and iterative arrays . [ 2 ]

Artificial life

Artificial life (often abbreviated ALife or A-Life [ 1 ] ) is a field of study and an associated art form which examine systems related to life , its processes, and its evolution, through the use of simulations with computer models , robotics , and biochemistry . [ 2 ] The discipline was named by Christopher Langton , an American computer scientist, in 1986. [ 3 ] There are three main kinds of alife, [ 4 ] named for their approaches: soft , [ 5 ] from software ; hard , [ 6 ] from hardware ; and wet , from biochemistry.
