Can a reptile compute? In one species of lizard, Timon lepidus, the colour and pattern of its scales evolve in a manner akin to a discrete rule-based computation called a cellular automaton. See ...

The study of corrosion processes remains pivotal for understanding material degradation in diverse environments. Recent computational approaches, particularly those employing cellular automata ...

Observing nature shows that many temporal and spatial structures are not formed by the outside, but rather by the respective system itself. To study these self-organizing processes is the subject of ...
