Parallel and Distributed Computation of a Fingerprint Access Control System

This work evaluates the runtime performance of a single-mode biometric recognition system for fingerprint-based access control to secure premises. To speed up computation time in this system, we resorted parallel programming, targeting more loops verification module. Our approach would therefore be parallelize all that are computationally intensive during fingerprints database. On this, exploited Microsoft's Task Parallel Library, specifically exploiting and each loop. test set performed sequential versions different data sizes, namely 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, can state results obtained by implementations our programs allowed us determine best approach. Therefore, it is very clear program too greedy terms compared which minimizes time.
