Margolus neighborhood

English Alternative forms en Margolus neighbourhood UK Etymology For Norman Margolus, Canadian-American cellular automatist Noun en cellular automata A block cellular automaton neighborhood consisting of a two-by-two square of cells which shifts one cell diagonally each generation. en 1992-03-16 CAM-PC Support Staff CAM, CAM-6, CAM\PC boards. comp.theory.cell-automata https://groups.google.com/g/comp.theory.cell-automata/c/Cp0oNNn0wEU/m/n5aMbPNDA9oJ In addition to Moore, Von Neuman and Margolus neighborhoods, the spatial, temporal (phase) and user connector extensions of CAM-PC provide for a large number of different neighborhoods. In this sense, a simple neighborhood is actually a selection of up to 16 of the 50 to 100 signals (depending on what you count) that are available. en 1992-03-30 Harold V.
