[comp.theory.cell-automata] Help for CA software project - heart modeling

DANDHIUT@cc.utah.edu (11/02/90)

Hello-                   11/1/90


I apoloagize if this seems like an inappropriate posting. While I am
not new to the concept of cellular automata modeling, I am new to the
concept of posting. For a number of years we have used CA models to
suggest features of electrical propagation in heart tissue which give
rist to reentry. Our CA models were written by a programmer who left
3 years ago, and we have had considerable difficulties in maintaining
that code in his absence. The code contains numerous VAXisms which we
would like to repair and/or eliminate so the CA simulations could be
run either on a UNIX (Silicon Graphics) workstation or on a MAC II. I
provide this description only as a rationale for what we are looking 
for:

1: a commercial package which will allow flexible implementation of
   the parameters for our CA simulations.

2: any public domain (with C source code) software which will provide
   the same.

Please address correspondence directly to me, and I will gladly post
an additional message which reviews the responses.

Thankyou in advance
