Cellular-automata models of natural processes, implementation on supercomputers

Представлены результаты анализа моделирующих способностей и вычислительных свойств методов клеточно-автоматного (КА) моделирования нелинейных пространственно распределенных процессов. Работа преследует две цели: 1) показать соответствие свойств КА-моделей современным тенденциям развития параллельных многопроцессорных архитектур (дискретность представления данных, локальность взаимодействий) и 2) раскрыть возможности КА-методов для компьютерного моделирования естественных существенно нелинейных, диссипативных процессов, не поддающихся традиционным методам математического моделирования. Обобщается опыт КА-моделирования, полученный в ИВМиМГ СО РАН. Работа содержит формальное представление КА-моделей, методы их построения, а также результаты реализации ряда тестовых и реальных задач на суперкомпьютерах

A guided tour of asynchronous cellular automata

Research on asynchronous cellular automata has received a great amount of attention these last years and has turned to a thriving field. We survey the recent research that has been carried out on this topic and present a wide state of the art where computing and modelling issues are both represented.Comment: To appear in the Journal of Cellular Automat

Cumulative index to NASA Tech Briefs, 1986-1990, volumes 10-14

Tech Briefs are short announcements of new technology derived from the R&D activities of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. These briefs emphasize information considered likely to be transferrable across industrial, regional, or disciplinary lines and are issued to encourage commercial application. This cumulative index of Tech Briefs contains abstracts and four indexes (subject, personal author, originating center, and Tech Brief number) and covers the period 1986 to 1990. The abstract section is organized by the following subject categories: electronic components and circuits, electronic systems, physical sciences, materials, computer programs, life sciences, mechanics, machinery, fabrication technology, and mathematics and information sciences

Aeronautical engineering: A cumulative index to a continuing bibliography (supplement 274)

This publication is a cumulative index to the abstracts contained in supplements 262 through 273 of Aeronautical Engineering: A Continuing Bibliography. The bibliographic series is compiled through the cooperative efforts of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Seven indexes are included: subject, personal author, corporate source, foreign technology, contract number, report number, and accession number

NASA patent abstracts bibliography: A continuing bibliography. Section 2: Indexes (supplement 46)

A subject index is provided for over 5600 patents and patent applications for the period May 1969 through December 1994. Additional indexes list personal authors, corporate authors, contract numbers, NASA case numbers, U.S. patent class numbers, U.S. patent numbers, and NASA accession numbers
