Abstract
We study a one dimensional constant threshold model in continuous time. Its dynamics have two parameters, the range $n$ and the threshold $v$. An unoccupied site $x$ becomes occupied at rate 1 as soon as there are at least $v$ occupied sites in $[x-n, x+n]$. As n goes to infinity and $v$ is kept fixed, the dynamics can be approximated by a continuous space version, which has an explicit invariant measure at the front. This allows us to prove that the speed of propagation is asymptoticaly $n^2/2v$.
