Cellular Automata Models of Self-Replicating Systems
Abstract: Since von Neumann's seminal work around 1950, computer scientists and others have studied the algorithms needed to support self-replicating systems. Much of this wor...

Minimizing Complexity in Cellular Automata Models of Self-Replication
Understanding self-replication from an information processing perspective is important because, amongother things, it can shed light on molecular mechanismsof biological reproduct...

Self-Protection and Diversity in Self-Replicating Cellular Automata
The concept of "self-protection", a capability of an organism to protect itself from exogenous attacks, is introduced to the design of artificial evolutionary systems as...

Heredity, Complexity, and Surprise: Embedded Self-Replication and Evolution in CA
Abstract. This paper reviews the history of embedded, evolvable selfreplicating structures implemented as cellular automata systems. We relate recent advances in this field to the...

Fault-Tolerant Structures: Towards Robust Self-Replication in a Probabilistic Environment
Abstract. Self-replicating structures in cellular automata have been extensively studied in the past as models of Artificial Life. However, CAs, unlike the biological cellular mod...
