Roger, if you are after "emergent" behavior, why don't you try to
compute Conway's game of Life using an xslt stylesheet? The stylesheet
would play the part of the autonomon, obeying a small selection of
simple rules. You would feed the result of each transformation to the
stylesheet as the new input at each cycle.
If Mike Kay can solve a chess problem and display the board with xslt,
you ought to be able to compute the game of Life, I would think.
I am not sure if that is what you are interested in, but it could
produce the kind of emergent behavior (i.e., stable patterns) that Life
can exhibit.
Cheers,
Tom P
