Abstract
We report recent developments in the modeling of fluid dynamics, and give experimental results (including dynamical exponents) obtained with cellular automata machines. Because of their locality and uniformity, cellular automata lend themselves to an extremely efficient physical realization; with a suitable architecture, an amount of hardware resources comparable to that of a home computer can achieve (in the simulation of cellular automata) the performance of a conventional supercomputer.Keywords
