From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   cellular automaton
  
      (CA, plural "- automata") A regular
      spatial lattice of "cells", each of which can have any one of
      a finite number of states.   The state of all cells in the
      lattice are updated simultaneously and the state of the entire
      lattice advances in discrete time steps.   The state of each
      cell in the lattice is updated according to a local rule which
      may depend on the state of the cell and its neighbors at the
      previous time step.
  
      Each cell in a cellular automaton could be considered to be a
      {finite state machine} which takes its neighbours' states as
      input and outputs its own state.
  
      The best known example is J.H. Conway's game of {Life}.

   cellular multiprocessing
  
      (CMP) The partitioning of
      {processors} into separate computing environments running
      different {operating systems}.
  
      The term cellular multiprocessing appears to have been coined
      by {Unisys}, who are developing a system where computers
      communicate as clustered machines through a high speed {bus},
      rather than through communication {protocols} such as
      {TCP/IP}.
  
      The Unisys system is based on {Intel} processors, initially
      the {Pentium II Xeon} and moving on to the 64-bit {Merced}
      processors later in 1999.   It will be scalable from four up to
      32 processors, which can be clustered or partitioned in
      various ways.   For example a sixteen processor system could be
      configured as four {Windows NT} systems (each functioning as a
      four-processor {symmetric multiprocessing} system), or an
      8-way NT and 8-way {Unix} system.
  
      Supported operating systems will be {Windows NT}, {SCO}'s
      {Unixware} 7.0, Unisys' {SVR4} {Unix} and possibly the OS2200
      and MCP-AS {mainframe} operating systems (with the assistance
      of Unisys' own dedicated {chipset}).

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   Cellular Neural Network
  
      (CNN) The CNN Universal Machine is a low cost,
      low power, extremely high speed {supercomputer} on a chip.   It
      is at least 1000 times faster than equivalent {DSP} solutions
      of many complex {image processing} tasks.   It is a stored
      program supercomputer where a complex sequence of image
      processing {algorithm}s is programmed and downloaded into the
      chip, just like any digital computer.   Because the entire
      computer is integrated into a chip, no signal leaves the chip
      until the image processing task is completed.
  
      Although the CNN universal chip is based on analogue and logic
      operating principles, it has an on-chip analog-to-digital
      input-output interface so that at the system design and
      application perspective, it can be used as a digital
      component, just like a DSP.   In particular, a development
      system is available for rapid design and prototyping.
      Moreover, a {compiler}, an {operating system}, and a
      {user-friendly} CNN {high-level language}, like the {C}
      language, have been developed which makes it easy to implement
      any image processing algorithm.
