In this paper, we have designed an efficient parallel algorithm for performing 3 D image reconstruction. In our framework, we have considered 3 D image to be reconstructed from a series of 2 D images, produced using Ultrasonography, Computer Tomography, etc. the paper discusses a general parallel algorithm for 3 D image reconstruction over CRCW, CREW and EREW PRAM models. We have developed efficient implementations of this algorithm over a vector machines, a distributed system comprising of a cluster of Work Stations and various interconnection network like mesh network and reconfigurable bus network. the performance of the above algorithms are tested using simulation experiments performed for 3 D image reconstruction of the vitreous region of the eye using ophthalmic ultrasonograms. A novel approximation scheme has also been proposed for a drastic improvement in performance for specific kinds of image. Results indicate the time complexities of the algorithms are in resonance with expected theoretical values and image obtained has a uncompromising level of accuracy.

PC clusters running Windows NT have been investigated as a low-cost alternative to parallel computers. One important reason why NT clusters are not broadly accepted yet is the lack of powerful development environments, which are a crucial success factor for software development projects. this paper presents the new Windows NT version of TRAPPER, an integrated development and visualization environment for parallel systems. Emphasis is put on a new component called the project workspace tool. Project workspaces enable user-friendly interaction with all components and settings required for the development of a parallel application. they automate many repetitive tasks that are typical to parallel system development.

this paper describes a biologically motivated visual architecture for automatic target acquisition and tracking. the model, that is based on principal characteristics of the Human Visual System (HVS), was incorporated into a prototype ATR testbed that performs multi-resolution target signature extraction at the sensor level. the extracted target features are then integrated into a consistent representation of the scene using a parallel attention model of the HVS. the described ATR solution integrates a number of innovations on target segmentation, camouflage elimination, 3D invariant target identification and intelligent tracking into a concise framework. the architecture is transparent to sensor technology. Simulation and experimental results are presented.

In this paper, we present the design of Pi (it), an ALDOR library to express parallel programs. ALDOR is a general purpose programming language designed for computer algebra and Pi (it) provides an ALDOR low-level interface that interacts with hardware or system tools in order to express parallelism. Additionally, Pi (it) provides an API that hides any low-level details such as sending messages, creating threads and provides an interface for data parallelism. this paper presents our design decisions and our implementation as well as examples of how easy ALDOR programmers can implement parallelalgorithms in a high-level abstract way with Pi (it).

In the solution of large-scale numerical problems, parallel computing is becoming simultaneously more important and more difficult. the complex organization of today's multi-processors with several memory hierarchies has forced the scientific programmer to make a choice between simple but unscalable code and scalable but extremely complex code that does not port to other architectures. this paper describes how the SMARTS runtime system and the POOMA C++ class library for high-performance scientific computing work together to exploit data parallelism in scientific applications while hiding the details of managing parallelism and data locality from the user. We present innovative algorithms, based on the macro-dataflow model, for detecting data parallelism and efficiently executing data-parallel statements on shared-memory multiprocessors. We also describe how these algorithms can be implemented on clusters of SMPs.

the paper discusses architectures for MPEG-2 encoders capable of operating at High Level as required for the transmission of high-definition television. the computational requirements of such an encoder cannot be met today by a single process; some degree of segmentation or parallelprocessing is required. — Some designs of high-definition encoder achieve this segmentation at a system level by dividing the high-definition image among a number of standard-definition encoders and subsequently combining the encoded datastreams. this approach offers simplicity of design and may appear to offer certain advantages to the user. — the paper discusses various aspects of the operation of encoders, including the coding of I-frames, the generation and coding of motion vectors, and bit allocation. It describes a number of problems withthis type of segmentation, and shows that optimal efficiency cannot be achieved. the paper further suggests that the apparent user benefits are difficult to realize, and concludes that a purpose-designed “full-frame” high-definition encoder provides a superior solution.
