Abstract

This paper presents research on discrete dynamics of cellular machines, their specification and interpretation. It gives an overview of the fundamental issues related to the classification of Cellular Automata (CA) classes. In particular, the possible locations of various CA capable to achieve different degrees of complex behaviors are described. This work is mainly focused on the correlation between CA behavior and cellular regulative properties. A possible minimalistic experimental setup is presented, together with some preliminary results and ideas that can be investigated in future work.
