Order; quantum computation.
* Idea: A cellular automaton
is a discrete model consisting of a regular grid of cells, each in one of
a finite number of states and with a set of neighborhood cells, whose state
is used in the rule for generating a new state for the specified cell.
* History: The concept was
originally discovered in the 1940s by Stanislaw Ulam and John von Neumann,
used in the 1970s by John Conway in his Game of Life, a 2D cellular
automaton, and systematically studied starting in the 1980s with
Stephen Wolfram's work.
