Mission
The International Society for Artificial Life (ISAL) was established in May of 2001 as a non-profit organization. Currently based at Reed College, ISAL is a democratic, international, professional society dedicated to promoting scientific research and education relatingto artificial life, including sponsoring conferences, publishing scientific journals and newsletters, and maintaining web sites related to artificial life. Artificial Life (published by MIT Press) is the official journal of ISAL, and the biannual International Conference on Artificial Life is the official scientific gathering of the Society.
这个站点在2001年时正式组建，因此之前的内容也就相应地被抛弃了可能

What is Artificial Life, or A-Life?
The study of life and living systems has historically been dominated by the study of organic (carbon-based) organisms as they are found on one isolated planet in a vast universe of possibilities. This study is largely contained within the field of biology, which applies a top-down approach-essentially taking apart existing living systems to discover the essential elements. Because the number and variety of living systems available for study is strictly limited, biology has some inherent weaknesses.
The biological approach can be compared to an attempt to learn the principles of painting by studying the works found in a single museum or created by a single artist. While such an approach will surely yield many valuable insights, it is unlikely that we can learn all that there is to know about the subject of painting in this manner. In the same way that a deeper understanding of painting can be gained by attempting to create your own works, those within the discipline of A-Life seek to better understand life and living systems through the simulation and synthesis of natural living systems. "[R]ather than studying biological phenomena by taking apart living organisms to see how they work, one attempts to put together systems that behave like living organisms." (zooland.alife.org)
Examples:
* Watch artificial life principles applied to NPC character behavior in a video game.
* See an insect walk using these principles.
The field of Artificial Life is, by nature, interdisciplinary, encompassing as it does the disparate fields of computer science, biology, physics, mathematics and many others.
Some definitions of A-Life:
Artificial life... is the study of life through the use of human-made analogs of living systems. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_Life)

Artificial life is the interdisciplinary enterprise investigating the fundamental properties of living systems through the simulation and synthesis of life-like processes in artificial media. (http://www.alifex.org/)
Artificial Life... is a new discipline that studies "natural" life by attempting to recreate biological phenomena from scratch within computers and other "artificial" media. -From Chris Adami, professor at California Institute of Technology, and Titus Brown, respected author and graduate of California Institute of Technology.
The term "Artificial Life" is used to describe research into human-made systems that possess some of the essential properties of life... This effort is truly interdisciplinary and runs the gamut from biology, chemistry and physics to computer science and engineering. While a large part of Artificial Life is devoted to understanding life as we know it-that is, life on earth-a significant effort concerns the search for principles of living systems which are independent of a particular substrate. Thus, Artificial Life also considers life "as it could be," exploring artificial alternatives to a carbon-based chemistry... Artificial Life is often described as attempting to understand high-level behavior from low-level rules; for example, how the simple rules of Darwinian evolution lead to high-level structure, or the way in which the simple interactions between ants and their environment lead to complex trail-following behavior. -From Chris Adami, professor at California Institute of Technology, and Titus Brown, respected author and graduate of California Institute of Technology.
Artificial Life is a field of scientific study that attempts to model living biological systems through complex algorithms. Scientists use these models to test and experiment with a multitude of factors on the behavior of the systems.

还是把那个图片发上来吧，大家看着方便些
而且比较好奇9楼的这句：

挺有想象力的
