Abstract

Linear acceleration theorems are known for most computational models. Although such results have been proved for two-dimensional cellular automata working on specific neighborhoods, no general construction was known. We present here a technique of linear acceleration for all twodimensional languages recognized by cellular automata working on complete neighborhoods.
