Mechanisms of Emergent Computation in Cellular Automata
Abstract. We introduce a class of embedded-particle models for describing the emergent computational strategies observed in cellular automata (CAs) that were evolved for performing...

Dissipative Cellular Automata As Minimalist Distributed Systems: A Study On Emergent Behaviors
This paper describes the behavior observed in a class of cellular automata that we have defined as "dissipative", i.e., cellular automata for which the external environm...

Cryptography by Cellular Automata or How Fast Can Complexity Emerge in Nature?
Computation in the physical world is restricted by the following spatial locality constraint: In a single unit of time, information can only travel a bounded distance in space. A ...

Rule 110: universality and catenations
Cellular automata are a simple model of parallel computation. Many people wonder about the computing power of such a model. Following an idea of S. Wolfram [16], M. Cook [3] has pr...

Cellular Ants: Combining Ant-Based Clustering with Cellular Automata
This paper proposes a novel data clustering algorithm, coined ‘cellular ants’, which combines principles of cellular automata and ant colony optimization algorithms to group s...
