Cellular Automata SPACELLE
Spacelle is dedicated to the creation of finished states cellular automata based on spatial knowledge. Knowledge is written by the user in the form of transition rules. The cells are square or hexagonal. The mathematical model is not defined a priori: the user has to describe it through the base of knowledge. The operating mode of the engine is synchronous or asynchronous (as the choice of the user).
Spacelle makes it possible to interactively build a dynamic model acting on an area divided in regular meshs (square or hexagonal) called cells.
The software makes it possible to deal with any set of topics adapted to a spatial dynamics based on rules such as described below.
