This paper presents a framework for developing a Web-based distributedimageprocessing application system that is flexible, convenient, and scalable. The system uses the existing Web-based technology and imageprocessing methodologies to implement this capability in a distributed computing environment that may include powerful machines to process complex and large images. The system consists of browser, server, service registry and task scheduler, image data storage and management, and knowledge-based imageprocessing services. A server-side application considers the user's request from a client side. The server host identifies the request and the necessary resources and schedules the computing resources and imageprocessing services. Based on the instructions of the developer's side (the service provider) a proper knowledge-based on-line assistance is given to the client to select the right algorithm, set up proper parameter values in order to maximize the usage. Developers can modify and upgrade the services at their own site and publish the workable version, its interface, and required resources to the server. The server enables remote invocation of the algorithm by providing a seamless and efficient linkage mechanism. An application for segmentation operation using deformable contour methods for complex images is provided as an example.

In this paper we discuss an efficient methodology for the image analysis and characterization of digital images containing skin lesions. The methodology is based on the support vector machines algorithm for data classification and it has been applied to the problem of the recognition of malignant melanoma versus dysplastic nevus. Border and color based features were extracted from digital images of skin lesions acquired under reproducible conditions, using basic imageprocessing techniques. Although larger sample sizes are necessary to resolve these issues fully, the support vector machines algorithm performed excellently achieving a high percentage of correct classification (approximately 100%). Two other classification methods, the statistical discriminant analysis and the application of neural networks were applied also to the same problem and their efficiency was compared with the support vector machines algorithm performance.

The detection of regulatory elements from a large set of regulatory regions is a challenging problem in computational genomics. However, computational methods to extract this biologically meaningful information suffer from high computational requirements. In this paper we present a parallel algorithm to detect regulatory elements using correlation with gene expression data and its implementation with gMP. gMP is a new purely Java-based interface that adds MPI-like message-passing and collective communication to the genomics Research Network Architecture (gRNA). The parallel implementation leads to significant runtime savings on our distributed gRNA system.

We present a new approach to isosurface visualization that we call "iso-splatting." We use point primitives for representing and rendering isosurfaces. The method consists of two steps. In the first step, point samples are generated throughout the volumetric domain of a scalar function. In the second step, these points are projected onto the isosurface of interest. We render the resulting point set using a surface splatting algorithm. The method can be extended to out-of-core or parallel environments. Our results show that this method can offer much greater time and space efficiency when compared with standard triangle-based methods, thereby supporting higher levels of interactivity. Parts of the algorithm can be accelerated using graphics hardware. One key advantage of this approach is that, since extraction computations are divided into two smaller phases, work can be distributed to exploit all available resources.

In this work, to render at least 512/sup 3/ voxel volumes in real-time, we have developed a sort-last parallel volume rendering method for distributed memory multiprocessors. Our sort-last method consists of two methods, Hsu's (1993) segmented ray casting and our divided-screenwise hierarchical (DSH) compositing, in which each processor produces a subimage and merges all the produced subimages into the final image. This paper describes the DSH method, which aims at achieving high performance compositing on a large number of processors. Our implementation on a 64-node PC cluster can composite a 512/sup 2/ pixel image about twice as fast as an existing method, the binary-swap method, so that can render a 512/spl times/512/spl times/224 voxel volume at approximately eight frames per second (fps).
