A computation-universal two-dimensional 8-state triangular reversible cellular automaton
A reversible cellular automaton (RCA) is a cellular automaton (CA) whose global function is injective and every configuration has at most one predecessor. Margolus showed that the...

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...

Analysis of a cellular automaton model for car traffic with a slow-to-stop rule
We propose a modification of the widely known Benjamin-Johnson-Hui (BJH) cellular automaton model for single-lane traffic simulation. In particular, our model includes a `slow-to-...

Computational complexity of dynamical systems: The case of cellular automata
Abstract. Cellular Automata can be considered discrete dynamical systems and at the same time a model of parallel computation. In this paper we investigate the connections between ...
