abstract:   video embossed tiles, the tiles are fairly large group makes up period, the number of these tiles at golestan palace museum's main hall is used. the study of these works, illuminating many issues and matters relating to art is in period. the phenomenon is illustrated in qajar embossed tiles, cultural factors, social and arts related courses. in this article, the influence of cu...

We consider the history of certain modular elements: Op-tiles, Kufic tiles, and key-patterns, which occur as ornamental archetypes from Paleolithic times until the present. Paleolithic ornaments We have found that the oldest examples of ornamentation in Paleothic art were from Mezin (Ukraine) dated to 23 000 B.C. Note that 23 000 years is a time period ten times longer than the complete written...

If asked to produce a list of current economists whose work will most influence the development of economics over the next 50 years, I would put Vernon Smith’s name close to the top. As Smith (1987) once remarked, economics has been traditionally considered an ‘‘observational’’ science like astronomy or meteorology, rather than an experimental science like physics or chemistry. The great accomp...

tiles and tilework has developed in islamic civilization based on pre-islamic iranian art and then spread out from spain to central asia. herein, iran has played an individual role among different islamic countries and remnants of various tileworks across this wide territory are clear evidences to this claim. among different species of tiles and tile decorations, we face with specific types of ...

Sébastien Truchet was a pioneer in applying combinatorics to the study of regular patterns. He enumerated the patterns that could be formed from square tiles that were divided by a diagonal into a black and a white triangle Following Truchet, others have created Truchet-like tilings composed of circular arcs and other motifs. These patterns are all based on Euclidean tessellations, usually the ...

In this paper we formalize the concept of square tiles with colored corners, a new kind of tiles closely related to Wang tiles. We construct aperiodic sets of square tiles with colored corners and several new aperiodic sets of Wang tiles using isomorphisms between tilings. The smallest aperiodic set of square tiles with colored corners we have created consists of 44 tiles over 6 colors.

In this paper we explore the relation between Wang Tiles and Schonfinkel Combinators in order to investigate Functional Combinators as an programming language for Self-assembly and DNA computing. We show: How any combinatorial program can be expressed in terms of Wang Tiles, and again, how any computation of the program fits into a grid of tiles of a suitable finite, tile set, and finally, how ...
