A new paradigm for the unification of physics is described. It is called Cellular Automata (CA) theory, which is the most massively parallel computer model currently known to science. We maintain that at the tiniest distance and time scales…

Discrete dynamical systems can exhibit complex behaviour from the iterative application of straightforward local rules. A famous example are cellular automata whose global dynamics are notoriously challenging to analyze. To address this, we…
