1. Description
This example contains the template, sample space and rule set files for the paper "Emergence of Self-Replicating Structures in a Cellular Automata Space. Hui-Hsien Chou and James A. Reggia. Physica D 110, 252-276, Nov. 1997".
The automata model introduced in this paper demonstrates for the first time that it is possible to create cellular automata models in which a self-replicating structure emerges from an initial state having a random density and distribution of individual components. These emergent self-replicating structures employ a fairly general rule set that can support the replication of structures of different sizes and their growth from smaller to larger ones. This rule set also allows "random" interactions of self-replicating structures with each other, and with other structures within the cellular automata space.
