Abstract
The Kauffman model is used as an example of a cellular automaton with fractal and multifractal properties. A close connection between the Kauffman model and percolation is established and we are able to describe a general class of automata—the Ising cellular automata. The fractal properties of this family are numerically in the same universality class as the Kauffman model and we assume that they also share the same multifractal properties. The search for multifractal and multiscaling features in their thermodynamic counterparts, the Ising and percolation models, is in progress.
