- Abstract.
Cellular dynamical systems, alias lattice dynamical systems,
emerged as a new mathematical structure and modeling strategy in the 1980's.
Based, like cellular automata, on finite difference methods for partial
differential equations, they provide challenging patterns of spatiotemporal
organisation, in which chaos and order cooperate in novel ways.
Here we present initial findings of our exploration
of a two-dimensional logistic lattice with the Massively Parallel
Processor (MPP) at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, a machine
capable of 200 megaflops per second. A video-tape illustrating these
findings is available.
