Hi,

Also describe your problem, which software you want to use to create solutions to your problem.

This review by Dietrich Stauffer: Conference Paper Cellular Automata

You can implement CA in almost any programing language.

However, if you care about large models then hardware and program performance will be critical.

Simple prototypes can be made in JAVA or Processing, but then you have to switch to C, C ++, and with particularly demanding models to CUDA.

This is very easy. Below, you find two programs implementing cellular automaton in Python and C++ & Qt. The Python program is to explain principles, but it is very slow. C++ & Qt program done in the cooperation with Jakub is much faster, but it is more difficult to program.

The Python program that simulates the John H. CONWAY’S 'Game of Life':

And this one (beside my PhD thesis, which describes the design of a CA model in depth)

Enjoy :-) Cellular Automata sits in the core of all descriptions of Complex Systems. A very suitable place to start to study them seriously.

Good platform for programing CA is also "Processing" (https://processing.org/)

This is good and quite fast graphics library & languge similar to JAVA, but simpler.

(use Python like scripts is also possible, but programs are probably slower)

Here you can take my CA template for students:

Under Linux, it is also possible to translate simple programs into C++, but this is still "under construction":

Dear Dr Dipankar Dey,

Finally, the video demonstration is prepared and it is a way more expressive tan any text can ever be! It demonstrates quite interesting behaviors observed in some extended neighborhoods of GoL, see

The John H. Conway's 'Game of Life' (GoL) Cellular Automaton:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gc42D2sdL8I

The generalized neighborhood applied to traditional 'Game of Life' cellular automaton is implemented in this open-source Python software:

It is capable to ceate an astonishing number of various emergents, even multi-level ones. It is open to other researchers to use it in their own research while citing it. Everyone is welcomed to play with it.

Stay tuned and follow the future applications and publications based on this research.
