Organizing a Global Coordinate System from Local Information on an Amorphous Computer

Organizing a Global Coordinate System from Local Information on an Amorphous Computer

This paper demonstrates that it is possible to generate a reasonably accurate coordinate system on randomly distributed processors, using only local information and local communication. By coordinate systems we imply that each element assigns itself a logical coordinate that maps to its global...
