On logical gates in precipitating medium: Cellular automaton model (2008)
Journal Article
Martínez, G. J., Adamatzky, A., & de Lacy Costello, B. (2008). On logical gates in precipitating medium: Cellular automaton model. Physics Letters A, 372(31), 5115-5119. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physleta.2008.05.087

We study a two-dimensional semi-totalistic binary cell-state cellular automaton, which imitates a reversible precipitation in an abstract chemical medium. The systems exhibits a non-trivial growth and nucleation. We demonstrate how basic computationa... Read More about On logical gates in precipitating medium: Cellular automaton model.

Patterns, originating from different sources of perturbations, propagating in a precipitating chemical medium do usually compete for the space. They sub-divide the medium onto the regions unique for an initial configuration of disturbances. This sub-... Read More about Computation by competing patterns: life rule B2/S2345678.

On the representation of gliders in Rule 54 by de Bruijn and cycle diagrams (2008)
Journal Article
Martinez, G. J., Adamatzky, A., & McIntosh, H. V. (2008). On the representation of gliders in Rule 54 by de Bruijn and cycle diagrams. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 5191, 83-91

Rule 54, in Wolfram’s notation, is one of elementary yet complexly behaving one-dimensional cellular automata. The automaton supports gliders, glider guns and other non-trivial long transients. We show how to characterize gliders in Rule 54 by diagra... Read More about On the representation of gliders in Rule 54 by de Bruijn and cycle diagrams.
