Square Kufic Pattern Formation by Asynchronous Cellular Automata

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 6350))

Abstract

Algorithms Design for pattern formation is an interesting science and many investigations are done about it. In this paper, a novel pattern formation method using asynchronous cellular automata for generating square Kufic patterns is explored. Square Kufic is a kind of script that is used in many Islamic architecture buildings. In our new method, cellular automata rules causing a specified kind of pattern are manually extracted. The implementation results show this fact by using some special patterns in replicators.
