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, ...

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 ...

In the early 1970s, computer programmers around the world were entranced by the strange happenings taking place on their screens. Right before their eyes, they observed digital creatures emerging from ...

Might treating binary numbers as cellular automata be helpful for the design and implementation of a digital binary counter? As most readers already know, counting in binary is similar to counting in ...

We introduce a new framework for constructing topological quantum memories, by recasting error recovery as a dynamical process on a field generating cellular ...

A state machine that consists of an array of cells, each of which can be in one of a finite number of possible states. The cells are updated synchronously in discrete time steps, according to a local, ...
