@ -141,3 +141,23 @@ How can gem-graph be used to analyse and control the complexity of what it
represents and sets in motion? This chapter introduces the gem-graph mechanism.
------------
Gem-graph can reproduce the behavior of any cellular automata. Whatever the state
of the cellular automaton space at a given time (n), this state can be considered
as a gem-graph state and a rule can be written to transform it into the next
state (n+1).
The difference with the cellular automaton is that this rule is not generated by
a "micro-rule" applied cell by cell to the entire state (n). This rule must be
written by hand and its writing requires knowledge of state (n+1).
Writing all the rules that describe all the transformations that have occurred
when a cellular automaton describes a trajectory (a story) is certainly tedious,
but it is always possible. And the number of possible histories that gem-graph
rules can describe is limited only by the size of the space and the number of
symbols it contains.
If a set of "micro-rules", each applied cell by cell to the entire state (n) of
a cellular automaton, can produce all the possible states that the gem-graph can
describe, the two representations can be considered to be equivalent in power.
