Claim:
A fractal structure, comprising: a first region comprising a first plurality of lattice sites, said first region having a first fractal structure grown from the start point of time of growth to a first point of time, said first fractal structure grown by: identifying the lattice sites adjacent to one of the first plurality of lattice sites; for each lattice site adjacent to the one lattice site; determining the probability that the lattice site is selected as part of the first fractal structure; selecting another lattice site based on the probability that the lattice site is selected as part of the first fractal structure; and adding the other lattice site to the first fractal structure; and until the first point of time: identifying the lattice sites adjacent to the other lattice site; and for each lattice site adjacent to the other lattice site; determining the probability that the lattice site is selected as part of the first fractal structure; selecting the other lattice site based on the probability that the lattice site is selected as part of the first fractal structure; and adding the other lattice site to the first fractal structure; and a second region comprising a second plurality of lattice sites, said second region having a second fractal dimension grown from said first point of time to a second point of time, said second fractal structure grown by: identifying the lattice sites adjacent to one of the second plurality of lattice sites; for each lattice site adjacent to the one lattice site; determining the probability that the lattice site is selected as part of the second fractal structure; selecting another lattice site based on the probability that the lattice site is selected as part of the second fractal structure; and adding the other lattice site to the second fractal structure; and until the second point of time: identifying the lattice sites adjacent to the other lattice site; and for each lattice site adjacent to the other lattice site; determining the probability that the lattice site is selected as part of the second fractal structure; selecting the other lattice site based on the probability that the lattice site is selected as part of the second fractal structure; and adding the other lattice site to the second fractal structure.
