Grammars of development: Discrete-state models for growth, differentiation, and gene expression in modular organisms (English)
0 references
[For the entire collection see Zbl 0755.00005.] This is a survey paper on Lindenmayer systems (\(L\) systems) and some applications. \(L\) systems are discrete mathematical systems which describe development of multicellular organisms. They consist of a state space and state transition rules being performed in discrete time steps. For the most part string \(OL\) systems are considered. These systems have been introduced to model organisms as strings of cells in specific states, and transition rules allow a cell to remain in its state, to change its state, to divide into several cells or to disappear. Examples and properties of \(OL\) systems concerning recursive formulations, growth functions and adult structures are discussed. The last section is devoted to advanced systems which model 2- or 3-dimensional cellular structures and which can be applied in certain areas of computer graphics, modelling and animation.
