Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Reaction-diffusion computing is a model of computation, in which pattern formation capabilities of reaction-diffusion dynamics are employed to solve complex computational tasks, such as image prosessing and optimal path planing. This paper focuses on the problem of finding the shortest path in 2-D space using excitable reaction-diffusion dynamics, and proposes a new approach to accelerate the computation by employing cellular-automate-based modeling of dynamics and SIMD(Single Instruction stream and Multiple Data streams)parallel processing technology. This paper also presents an efficient implementation of the proposed architecture with reconfigurable FPGAs(Field-Programmable Gate Arrays).
