ISA

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. Since this is a topic of scientific interest for me, it will always be incomplete in some way.

What is 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.
