Abstract
Optical Cellular Array Processors (OCAPs) are a subject of current interest because they offer the potential of programmable optical computers. By a suitable combination of data formatting, systolic movement of data in an acousto-optic cell, parallel masking, and thresholding; fast OCAPs are readily constructable.
