All data was provided by Mel Barclay, MD. He is an Associate Professor Emeritus, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Medical School.

Visualizations of simulation results involving uterine activity in human birth process Mel Barclay, MD. The simulation was done by using cellular automata. Each cell can have one of 8 states and the coloring is done based on the state.
