Two-Dimensional Cellular Automata Synchronizers
We study a firing squad synchronization problem that gives a finite-state protocol for synchronizing large-scale cellular automata. In this paper, we give a survey on recent developments in designing optimumand non-optimum-time synchronization algorithms and present their state-efficient implementations for two-dimensional cellular arrays. Several simple, state-efficient mapping schemes are pro...
متن کاملLinear Cellular Automata and Finite Automata
Linear cellular automata have a canonical representation in terms of labeled de Bruijn graphs. We will show that these graphs, construed as semiautomata, provide a natural setting for the study of cellular automata. For example, we give a simple algorithm to determine reversibility and surjectivity of the global maps. We also comment on Wolfram’s question about the growth rates of the minimal f...

متن کاملLinear Cellular Automata and Fischer Automata
We study the sizes of minimal finite state machines associated with linear cellular automata. In particular, we construct a class of binary linear cellular automata whose corresponding minimal automata exhibit full exponential blow-up. These cellular automata have Hamming distance 1 to a permutation automaton. Moreover, the corresponding minimal Fischer automata as well as the minimal DFAs have...
