ISA Description

ISA - Finite-state automata with a growing set of features for research. ISA is an acronym for "Infinite State Automata." Lots of researchers believe that FSA (finite state automata) are a parallel for many complex biological systems, including intelligent systems, which I consider to have infinite possibilities, thus the title. ISA represents a topic of scientific interest for me and as long as my curiosity will be alive, it will always be incomplete in some way. What's New in This Release: Currently supports 1, 2, and 3-dimensional FSA, though only 1 and 2-dimensional automata can be properly visualized. The default automata rules are John Conway's Game of Life. The map wraps around on the sides, and zooming out will show repetitions. This has been somewhat performance optimized. Search functionality is included, and is even optimized for any non-trivial search. (command-click and drag) Option-click to change the rule for an individual cell. Have fun with the randomizers! Lots of future developments on the way, many being research-oriented.
