Abstract
The mainframe of this work has been the study of cellular automata as very simple SIMD systems. We introduce some variations over the basic definition of cellular automata in order to compare these new models with other models of cellular automata. The neighborhood-varying cellular automata is shown to be as powerful as time-varying cellular automata. The dynamically reconfigurable cellular automata are more interesting because they effectively reduce the running-time for some normal CA computations. Then some
