2016-1 edition

(past) Summer edition (2016)

(??????): Implementation of Game of Life with some modifications by yourself (states, rules, ...), create your drive for deliveries and put it here.
(??????): My first model of a phenomena using Game of Life and some modified rules
(??????): (a) Implementation of Koch curve to calculate its perimeter and its similarity dimension (extra bonus); (b) Implementation of my Model with solving the ODEs (or other model) (MATHEMATICA or MATLAB or Python or ...).
(??????): Writting projects using Latex, try to use https://pt.sharelatex.com/ :-) (4-6 pages with Introduction (area of modeling), Model, Analysis, Considerations)
(??????): (1) Implementation with Automata and (ODEs?); (2) a Model analysis and parameter analysis; (3) your project (written).
