%X Cellular automata (CAs) are good examples of systems in
   which large numbers of autonomous entities exhibit emergent
   behaviour.Using the occam\-pi and JCSP communicating process
   systems, we show how to construct
   &\[sh]8220;lazy&\[sh]8221; and
   &\[sh]8220;just\-in\-time&\[sh]8221; models of
   cellular automata, which permit very efficient parallel
   simulation of sparse CA populations on shared\-memory and
   distributed systems.
