Extractions: The incredible pace of advancements in microelectronics may slow as a result of some insurmountable roadblocks when transistors are scaled to sizes of only a few nanometers. Conventional transistors rely on the macroscopic averaging of quantum effects. At scales of only a few nanometers these assumptions are no longer valid, and quantum effects become prominent and potentially problematic. Large leakage currents due to quantum tunneling prevent proper functionality. In order to maintain the pace of advancement in electronics we must investigate alternatives that take advantage of quantum phenomena and are not hindered by it. This should not be mistaken as a microelectronics crisis, the industry still has considerable time before any significant slow down in progress. Current technology has minimum feature sizes on the order of 130nm, still far from problematic. Quantum dot cellular automata (QCA) are a nano-technology based on the confinement of electrons within structures called quantum dots. QCA technology is capable of general computation and may one day replace the transistor in electronic design. Although work on QCA has been underway for more then a decade, many challenges remain before mass production of these devices can get underway. Contrary to the transistor a quantum dot requires extremely small size in order to function properly. Researchers predict that room temperature operation will require quantum dots a nanometer in diameter, more on this later.

Choice of a particular single configuration is a RANDOM quantum choice. Feynman's Relativistic Chessboard as an Ising Model, by H. A. Gersch (Int. J. Theor. Phys. 20 (1981) 491), shows that the (1+1)-dimensional Feynman Checkerboard, which describes the (1+1)-dimensional Dirac equation , is equivalent to the 1-dimensional Ising model . The Feynman Checkerboard for an electron in 1+1 dimensional spacetime can be represented as a 1-dimensional Cellular Automaton evolving in 1 time dimension. The initial state is a point in the t=0 initial time, the initial location of the electron in 1-dimensional space. Each possible state at time t=N is a point locating the electron on the spatial line at t=N. All possible paths from the initial state at t=0 to the state at t=N are summed ( the Quantum Sum Over Histories 2 +/- sqrt(2 +/- sqrt(2 +/- sqrt(2 +/- ... ))) Such sequences of length M are the zeroes of the Chebyshev polynomials of degree 2^M. Simlarly to this way that the binary sequences can represent the spatial part of the 1+1-dim Feynman Checkerboard as points on a line segment, the spatial part of the 1+1-dim Feynman Checkerboard can also be represented as a
CELLULAR AUTOMATA

http://www.wspc.com/books/chaos/4702.html

Extractions: Cellular automata are a class of spatially and temporally discrete mathematical systems characterized by local interaction and synchronous dynamical evolution. Introduced by the mathematician John von Neumann in the 1950s as simple models of biological self-reproduction, they are prototypical models for complex systems and processes consisting of a large number of simple, homogeneous, locally interacting components. Cellular automata have been the focus of great attention over the years because of their ability to generate a rich spectrum of very complex patterns of behavior out of sets of relatively simple underlying rules. Moreover, they appear to capture many essential features of complex self-organizing cooperative behavior observed in real systems. This book provides a summary of the basic properties of cellular automata, and explores in depth many important cellular-automata-related research areas, including artificial life, chaos, emergence, fractals, nonlinear dynamics, and self-organization. It also presents a broad review of the speculative proposition that cellular automata may eventually prove to be theoretical harbingers of a fundamentally new information-based, discrete physics. Designed to be accessible at the junior/senior undergraduate level and above, the book will be of interest to all students, researchers, and professionals wanting to learn about order, chaos, and the emergence of complexity. It contains an extensive bibliography and provides a listing of cellular automata resources available on the World Wide Web.

Extractions: A simple and well-known example of a cellular automaton is John Conway's Life. In this we consider a square array of cells, each of which is either "dead" or "alive". The eight cells immediately adjacent to a cell are called its "neighbors". The rules governing the dynamics of the system are as follows: (i) In the transition from one "generation" to the next the state of each cell is changed once according to rules (ii) and (iii). (iii) A cell which is dead will remain dead in the next generation unless there are exactly three cells among its neighbors which are alive, in which case it becomes alive. This Cellular Automata software allows exploration of five different cellular automata. All of them use a 2-dimensional array of cells which can vary in size from 33x33 to 528x528. "Periodic boundary conditions" are used, meaning that the left edge of the array wraps around to contact the right edge, and the top edge of the array wraps around to contact the bottom edge. The structure is thus that of a torus, although it is easier to think of a 2-dimensional plane in which an unlimited number of copies of the square array are reproduced next to, and above and below, each other (and each copy changes in the same way).

1D Boolean Cellular Automata
1 Dimensional Boolean cellular automata. Written by Paul Bourke September1997. A boolean cellular automata is a collection of cells
http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/~pbourke/fractals/ca/

Extractions: September 1997 A boolean cellular automata is a collection of cells that can be in one of two states, on and off, 1 or 0. The states of each cell varies in time depending on the connections, called rules, between the cells. While there can be any arbitrary set of connections/rules govening the system a particular one will be considered here, namely, a linear strip of cells where the output at each time step of each cell is a function of the current state of the cell and the state of its two immediate neighbours. As an extra nicety, the two ends of the strip of cell are connected together to form a continuous band. For any particular cell its next value is determined by 3 values, its state and the state of its neighbours. This leads to at most 8 different transitions. For example, the rules might be as follows: While not necessary, the rules decided upon apply to each cell in the strip. There are plenty of interesting dynamics possible without having variable rules across the strip. The simulation is "run" by setting an initial state and iteratively applying the rules for a number of time steps. In the first example the following rules are used.

http://website.lineone.net/~edandalex/celautom.htm

Extractions: home Music has always been an interesting domain for the application of new scientific discoveries inviting composers to combine artistic creativity with scientific methods. Today, it is becoming increasingly common for the composer to turn to the sciences to supplement his or her compositional models. By the same token, scientists also seem to show interest in the organisational principles to be found in music. Scientific models carry an important component of human thought, namely formal abstraction , which can be very inspiring for music composition. My research work attempts to identify a correlation among different disciplines such as biology, crystallography and computing in order to investigate the possibility of synthesising sounds and composing music inspired by this interdisciplinary framework. A class of mathematical models known as cellular automata plays a central role in my research. Cellular automata have been used to model a wide range of scientific phenomena. They have been studied and developed for over three decades. Although very simple, they can provide models for a wide variety of complex phenomena in a range of disciplines including physics (e.g., dynamic and chaotic systems), genetics and chemistry (e.g., chemical reactions and crystal growth).

Extractions: Acknowledgments and Further Information Since cellular automata produce large amounts of patterned data and if we assume that music composition can be thought of as being based on pattern propagation and formal manipulation of its parameters, it comes as no surprise that researchers started to suspect that cellular automata could be mapped into a music representation in order to generate compositional material. CAMUS is a cellular automata-based music generator. From many different cellular automata algorithms available today, two have been selected for CAMUS, namely Game of Life (invented by John Horton Conway) and Demon Cyclic Space (designed by David Griffeath). top From one tick of the clock to the next, the cells of the Game of Life cellular automaton can be either alive (i.e., black) or dead (i.e., white), according to the following rules devised by Conway: if a cell is dead at time t , it comes alive at time

Extractions: Any opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Science Foundation. The PascGalois project has its origin in a simple exercise with Pascals triangle. Take each entry in the triangle and replace it with its congruent value mod n, where n is a positive integer larger than 1. By assigning each of the values 0,1,...,n-1 a distinct color, patterns reminiscent of fractals appear. Our interest in this construction lies in the fact that addition mod n is the group multiplication of the cyclic group Zn and the patterns seen in the triangles are related to the structure of these groups. We generalize this construction to other groups, algebraic structures, and cellular automata, creating research questions in an area where Abstract Algebra, Dynamical Systems, Number Theory, Fractal Geometry and Computer Graphics interplay.
