Parallel processing systems have an advantage over traditional supercomputers in price/performance, but traditional supercomputers retain a signiicant advantage over parallel processing systems in the area of exibility. Traditional supercomputers can easily handle a mix of interactive, batch, scalar, vector, parallel, and large memory jobs simultaneously while maintaining high utilization. Ofte...

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...

Recent activation and electrophysiological studies have demonstrated that sound recognition and localization are processed in two distinct cortical networks that are each present in both hemispheres. Sound recognition and/or localization may be, however, disrupted by purely unilateral damage, suggesting that processing within one hemisphere may not be sufficient or may be disturbed by the contr...

ParLeda is a software library that provides the basic primitives needed for parallel implementation of computational geometry applications. It can also be used in implementing a parallel application that uses geometric data structures. The parallel model that we use is based on a new heterogeneous parallel model named HBSP, which is based on BSP and is introduced here. ParLeda uses two main lib...
