A model of morphological development of living tissues could be split into three mutually entangled parts: a mechanical model of tissues, diffusion of signaling molecules, and a gene regulatory network. This paper propose a cellular automaton mechanical model of mesenchyme including its growth...

A bidimensional cellular automaton model is used to simulate the process of evacuation of pedestrians in a room with fixed obstacles. A floor field is defined so that moving to a cell with lower floor field means approaching an exit door. The model becomes non-deterministic by introducing a...

Crowd scenarios have attracted attention from computer modellers, perhaps because of the impracticality of studying the phenomenon by traditional experimental methods. For example, Kirchner has proposed an agent-based crowd model inspired by fields of elementary particles [A. Kirchner, A....

We introduce an agent-based model for the spreading of technological developments in socio-economic systems where the technology is mainly used for the collaboration/interaction of agents. Agents use products of different technologies to collaborate with each other which induce costs...

We investigate the performances of collective task-solving capabilities and the robustness of complex networks of automata using the density and synchronization problems as typical cases. We show by computer simulations that evolved Watts–Strogatz small-world networks have superior performance...
