L-hardware: Modeling and implementing cellular development using L-systems

    Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

    Abstract

    Cellular automata (CA) were originally conceived by Ulam and von Neumann in the 1940s to provide a formal framework for investigating the behavior of complex, extended systems [32]. CAs are dynamical systems in which space and time are discrete. A cellular automaton consists of an array of cells, each of which can be in one of a finite number of possible states, updated synchronously in discrete time steps, according to a local, identical interaction rule. The state of a cell at the next time step is determined by the current states of a surrounding neighborhood of cells [20, 29, 33].
