Infrastructure-as-a-Service providers are offering their unused resources in the form of variable-priced virtual machines (VMs), known as "spot instances", at prices significantly lower than their standard fixed-priced resources. To lease spot instances, users specify a maximum price they are willing to pay per hour and VMs will run only when the current price is lower than the user's bid. This paper proposes a resource allocation policy that addresses the problem of running deadline-constrained compute-intensive jobs on a pool of composed solely of spot instances, while exploiting variations in price and performance to run applications in a fast and economical way. Our policy relies on job runtime estimations to decide what are the best types of VMs to run each job and when jobs should run. Several estimation methods are evaluated and compared, using trace-based simulations, which take real price variation traces obtained from Amazon Web Services as input, as well as an application trace from the parallel Workload Archive. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of running computational jobs on spot instances, at a fraction (up to 60% lower) of the price that would normally cost on fixed priced resources.
Traditionally, imageprocessing based on Markov Random Field (MRF) is often addressed on a 4-connected grid graph defined on the image. This structure is not computationally efficient. In our work, we develop a multip...

The paper presents energy based medical imaging segmentation methods by using Cellular Neural Networks (CNN). By implementing the proposed algorithm on FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) with an emulated digital CNN-UM (CNN-Universal Machine), due to complete parallelprocessing, computing-time reduction is achieved and there is a possibility to meet the requirements for medical image segmentation.

An extended registration model is presented to register medical image triples acquired for brain dopamine receptor scintigraphies. The model operates with rigid and nonlinear transformations in parallel, where all transformation parameters are optimized by one optimization method. The concept of the transformation-sampling-similarity measurement minimizes the memory usage of a real implementation. A partial-fine sampling method is proposed to decrease the processing time of the registration. Real medical data was collected to compare our method with well-known prior ones. The first tests show that the model outperforms the classic registration methods in both speed and accuracy.
