Solitons, are special moving waves with the remarcable characteristic that when colliding they come out of the collision without loosing their initial properties. Soliton Automata (SA) are a particular class of Cellular Automata which support solitons. In this work we present a survey of recent developments in the area of SA and some new results regarding algorithmic issues of sequential and parallel versions of the SA. We show that the parallel implementation of the SA in the CRCW model of computation is optimal.
