EvoCell - free software for evolving cellular automata
summary
EvoCell is a GPL-licensed program that simulates many cellular automata in parallel, supporting arbitrary neighborhoods, any number of cell states, and fully configurable transition rules (limited only by RAM). It adds a genetic-algorithm-based evolution layer to search the vast space of possible rules, aiming to discover emergent phenomena like gliders, replicators and blinkers, and uses these experiments to illustrate basic principles of artificial life.
