English Dictionary

cellular automaton

名詞

(computing theory) An automaton consisting of cells arranged in a regular grid, in one or more dimensions. Each application of an associated rule creates a new generation, where the cells have a new configuration of values.

日本語の意味

計算理論におけるセルラ・オートマトン（セルオートマトン）とは、セル（細胞）が一定の規則に従って格子状に配置され、各セルの状態が隣接セルの状態や定められたルールに基づいて更新されるシステムのことです。各更新により、新たな世代が生成され、全体の状態が変化していく性質を持ちます。

By simulating traffic flow with a cellular automaton, researchers identified emergent congestion patterns that matched real-world data.

格子状に並んだセルからなるオートマトンを用いて交通流をシミュレーションしたところ、研究者たちは実世界のデータに一致する出現的な渋滞パターンを確認した。

意味（1）

(computing theory) An automaton consisting of cells arranged in a regular grid, in one or more dimensions. Each application of an associated rule creates a new generation, where the cells have a new configuration of values.

The paper concludes: The Busy Boxes variant of the SALT family of reversible cellular automata has shown itself to possess an intriguing number of features that are worthy of further study and analysis. Physicist Gerard T'Hooft has written about the possibility that reversible CA's such as this one may help elucidate some aspects of physics in the quantum realm [5]. We believe that the study of emergent, qualitative, and statistically predictable behavior of these kinds of discrete, deterministic systems can indeed shed light on questions in physics, and may also help to clarify the deeper principles of entropy and the origin of complex, self-propagating systems such as those found in our biosphere
