Abstract

A cellular processor is a totally reconfigurable universal purpose device for highly parallel processing, where computations are performed by a homogeneous array of microprogrammable Boolean processors [6].

In this paper three cellular algorithms are proposed for solving dense systems of linear equations. For simplicity these algorithms are given as systolic arrays, but our attention is focussed on their implementation with cellular processors.
