%X Cellular automata are used to solve partial differential
   equations (PDE) discretized on a non\-regular grid. Boolean
   representations of real numbers are introduced and logical
   intrinsic computer functions are used to achieve algebraic
   operations of the finite difference algorithm. In a first
   step the method is briefly explained and then implementation
   is described. For diffusion or convection problems,
   preliminary computations on a Cray\-XMP18 and on a network
   of T800 Transputers were done.
