  Artificial Life is the study of synthetic systems that exhibit behaviors characteristic of natural living systems.It complements the tarditional biological sciences concerned with the analysis of living organisms by attempting to synthesize lifelike behavior within computers and other artrificial media. by extending the empirical foundation upon which biology is based beyond the carbon-chain life that evolved on Earth, Artificial Life can contribute to theoretical biology by locating life as we know it within the larger picture of life as it could be.
