Sandbox Reviews - Computing

Self Generating Programs	Review	New Window
	Self-generating programs, when executed, produce their own listing at an output device. Markus Holzer of the University of Tuebingen has assembled about a dozen such programs in various languages.

Cellular Automata Tutorial	Review	New Window
	Alexander Schatten of the Vienna University of Technology has hung this broadly informative feature on cellular automata from his home page at the Institut fur Softwaretechnik.

Cellular Automata	Review	New Window
	This well-organized and very dynamic site provides an engaging introduction to cellular automata, Turing machines and register machines.

Complex Systems Virtual Library	Review	New Window
	Whatever the term “complex systems” means, this site provides access to a wide variety of frothy documents in topics such as artificial life, chaos theory, and evolutionary computation.

Cellular Automata and Digital Worlds	Review	New Window
	A better-than-average examination of cellular automata, with definitions, applications, and a brief analysis of behaviors.

Julia and Mandelbrot Set Explorer	Review	New Window
	A simple but sophisticated site that explains the relationship between the Julia and mandelbrot sets, then illustrates it with an easy-to-use image exploration facility.

Quantum Computation Archive	Review	New Window
	This no-frills archive contains about 450 articles downloadable as PDF files. The topics span a considerable range, from gates to philosophy.

HOTBITS: Genuine Random Numbers Generated by Radioactive Decay	Review	New Window
	Every practitioner of the black art of computer simulation of stochastic processes uses a "random number generator," a program that generates numbers that appear to be random but are not. For most purposes these are random enough, but for those who want real random numbers, this is the site for you.
