Cellular Automaton
A cellular automaton is a discrete model of computation studied in automata theory.
It has found application in various areas, including physics, biology and microstructure modelling.
History and Popular Applications
- First discovered by Stainslaw Ulam and John von Neumann at Los Alamos National Laboratory.
- Conway's Game of Life popularized it
- Stephen Wolfram's Wolfram Physics
- Simulation of physical processes on the Connection Machine, Richard Feynman, Stephen Wolfram, etc. (Feynman's Theory of Cellular Automata)
