Abstract
The cellular automata (CA) concept is introduced, and it is shown how it is applied to situation assessment in connection with digital map-based tasks. The demonstration system makes use of 11480 virtual processors. Although the use of the CA paradigm was motivated by projections of future availability of massively parallel hardware, the CA algorithms have run efficiently on ordinary serial computers.<>
