Abstract
We propose a model of a 2-dimensional 2-state asynchronous updating cellular automaton with inner-independent radius-dependent totalistic rule. An inner-independent rule is such that the cell’s updating does not depend on the state of the center cell. A radius-dependent totalistic rule is a totalistic rule which the neighborhood is an extended Moore neighborhood that consists of cells at orthogonal or diagonal distances 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 from the center cell, taking summations of the living cells in their domain individually. The rule set designed in this paper is universal for computation, that is, any delay-insensitive circuit can be constructed. We also show the algorithm to prove the correct operations.
