cellular automaton
noun cellular automata · cellular automatons
-
An automaton consisting of cells arranged in a regular grid, in one or more dimensions. Each application of an associated rule creates a new generation, where the cells have a new configuration of values.
Or maybe just taking some precautions when setting up the division scheme for a particular cellular automaton might be good enough in other cases, depending on how dynamic and non-homogeneous the behavior over the grid will be.
