• Movements in three dimensions
• Realization of parallelism in CAM-8 model
• This program shows the use of sites and planes for four direction lattice gas
• Data in three dimensions.
• Time is fourth dimension.
• Use graphics to visualize evolution in 4D.
• Currently image processing is the most important application of
machines of this type – give medical examples.
• It was the most powerful computer for this type of
calculations in 1988.
