Distributed Image Processing on a Blackboard System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Efficient approaches to computationally intensive image processing tasks are currently highly sought after. In this chapter we show how a blackboard paradigm, originally developed for collaborative problem solving, can be used as an efficient and effective vehicle for distributed computation. Through the design of dedicated intelligent agents, typical image processing algorithms can be applied in parallel on multiple loosely coupled machines leading to a significant overall speedup as is verified in a series of experiments.

Automated Visual Inspection Using a Distributed Blackboard Architecture
The framework of an automated vision system for monitoring quality control is presented where detection of various forms of defects is achieved by combining distributed artificial intelligence and image processing. A distributed blackboard architecture manages the processing of image data via an area of shared memory where the current understanding of the problem evolves. Registration into a co...
متن کاملA distributed blackboard system for vision applications
This paper describes an implementation of a distributed parallel blackboard system that runs on a Meiko multitransputer system. The blackboard is split up amongst the transputers to allow for distributed local processing, yet the access of the blackboard is transparent to the user processes, irrespective of whether the data is local or remote. Multiple expert processes are invoked as processing...
متن کاملPerformance of a Multi-agent Simulation on a Distributed Blackboard System
Research into multi-agent systems has increased over several years, leading to demand for multi-agent system simulators to investigate the interaction between different agents and their environment. The more complex and intelligent the agents become, the more difficult it is to simulate them. Distributing the simulation across different processors would improve its performance. This paper descr...

متن کاملA Framework for Parallel Map Recognition Based on Blackboard Model
Recently, the studies about parallel image processing have been performed extensively. Many systems adopt the data parallel processing for their parallelizing strategies. In the data parallel processing strategy, input image data is divided into some fragments, and each fragment is processed on each processing element (PE). However, in this data parallel strategy, the synchronization among proc...
