Life seems to be at the border between order and chaos. The Game of Life, which is a cellular automation to mimic life, also lies at the transition between ordered and chaotic structures. Kauffman recently that the organizations at the edge of chaos may be the characteristic target of selection for systems able to coordinate complex tasks and adapt. In this paper, we present the idea of perpetual disequilibration proposed by Gunji and others as a general principle governing self-organization of complex systems towards the critical state lying at the border of order and chaos. The rule for the Game of Life has the minimum degree of perpetual disequilibrium among 2(18) rules of the class to which it belongs.
生命似乎处于秩序与混沌的边界。“生命游戏”是一种模拟生命的细胞自动机，它也处于有序结构和混沌结构的过渡阶段。考夫曼最近提出，处于混沌边缘的组织可能是能够协调复杂任务并适应的系统的特征性选择目标。在本文中，我们提出了 Gunji 等人提出的永久失衡的概念，作为支配复杂系统自组织向处于秩序与混沌边界的临界状态发展的一般原则。“生命游戏”的规则在其所属类别的 2(18) 条规则中具有最小程度的永久失衡。
