Some New Types of Cellular Array computers

Abstract

The report describes several new design methods and applications for parallel computers which consist of large arrays of simple cells. A linear memory structure is described which might be used as a compression coder, associative memory, or as a fast memory with slow components. A very simple cell with a somewhat novel type of computation-universality is applied in a distributed optical processor. Several ways to speed up Turing machines with multiple heads are described.
