Abstract

Point mutation colonies (hereinafter referred to as PM colonies) are multi-agent systems. Development of the environment in these systems is determined by rewriting rules which allow the agent to influence other agents and environmental symbols in its strict neighbourhood. The rules enable the agent to erase, substitute or insert neighbouring agents/symbols, to change its position with neighbouring agents/symbols or to disappear. In this paper we will focus on the impact of forbidding some of the rule-type or their combination in the development of the entire family of PM colonies with such restriction and we will also look into the impact of restrictions on the generative power of PM colonies.
