Tim Hutton is a member of the Golly Gang and lead developer of Ready, an open-source, cross-platform program for exploring continuous cellular automata and reaction-diffusion systems. Ready, a sister project to Golly, supports 1D, 2D and 3D data, as well as polygonal and polyhedral meshes. In particular, it includes a continuous version of Life in which cells have floating-point values at discrete timestamps.[1]

In 2010, Hutton implemented Codd's design for a universal computer in Codd's 8-state cellular automaton,[2] over 40 years after Codd first published his seminal work.
