Title: AuDaLa is Turing Complete

Abstract: AuDaLa is a recently introduced programming language that follows the new data autonomous paradigm. In this paradigm, small pieces of data execute functions autonomously. Considering the paradigm and the design choices of AuDaLa, it is interesting to determine the expressiveness of the language and to create verification methods for it. In this paper, we take our first steps to such a verification method by implementing Turing machines in AuDaLa and proving that implementation correct. This also proves that AuDaLa is Turing complete.
