Pattern Formation Using Cellular Automata and L-Systems: A Case Study in Producing Islamic Patterns - Cellular Automata in Image Processing and Geometry - page 229

Fig. 12.1 A miniature consists of Ma'qeli pattern of which means 'Congratu-

lations'

of script which facilitates reusability possibilities in generating similar patterns. In
order to show the simplicity and efficiency of the proposed method, a set of experi-
ments is conducted in which the capability of both synchronous and asynchronous
cellular automata with 1D and 2D structures and different neighborhoods are ex-
amined. It was observed in the course of experiments that the contribution towards
this study has a number of advantages. First, this script, as a graphical primitive, has
the capability of being utilized in graphical applications such as computer games,
animations, and so forth [8]. Moreover, it will assist industrial applications to show
sentences on 7-segments or dot matrix monitors. In short term too, an improvement
of this research's understanding can be used as an add-on for CAD software to make
it applicable in the domain of cultural heritages, handicrafts and the calligraphies
which are woven through the carpets.
The roadmap of this chapter is as follows. Section 2 describes preliminary defini-
tion and terminology. The proposed method is explained in Section 3. Experimental
results are depicted in Section 4, and finally this chapter is concluded in Section 5.
