EcoSim is a simple biological simulation ran at a massive scale. The simulation uses cellular automata to model creatures living in a 2D grid world. The model is comprised of plants and bacteria. Plants grow by harvesting sunlight and are able to reproduce into empty neighboring cells when they reach a specific energy level. Conversely, bacteria can move freely between empty cells in search of plants to eat. If bacteria find a steady source of plant food they can reproduce and flourish; if they do not find plant food within a certain amount of time they die. These simple axiomatic rules have the ability to produce complex ecosystems that are cyclical and self-balancing—it’s also a great way to demonstrate the power of the GPU for a certain class of computational problems.
