Abstract
Whether dealing with processes or threads to obtain parallelism, parallel computation provides means to obtain real-time performances using different compiling directives or libraries [1]. A parallel implementation of an algorithm, in particular, physical parallelism, leads to a significant speedup of the execution time. This paper presents two parallel implementations of Conway’s Game of Life cellular automaton, which produces the continuous change of state (live or ...
