โœฆ Synopsis


We present a model of rule-changing cellular automata (CA) to study dynamical structure of CA in detail. In our model calculation the edge of chaos is observed on the basis of the source role 22 which yields the most interesting behavior. We find that the edge of chaos is generated through competition between two role-changing behaviors. These rule-changing behaviors are analyzed quantitatively by using the mutual information as a measure of complexity. It is noted that the mutual information has the maximum value near the edge of chaos because of competition.

The critical behaviour of cellular automata can be studied like in chaotic systems as the sensitivity to initial conditions. We find the fractal dimension for the basin boundary set of the attracting configurations. Moreover, obtained data allow us to qualify configurations from the attracting set.
