Parallel Image Processing

This book developed out of a series of publications in the area of image processing with massively parallel algorithms. The topic of image processing is a particularly promising area for the use of synchronous massively parallel or data-parallel computer systems which work according to the SIMD principle (single instruction, multiple data). While the era of large SIMD super-computers has passed, SIMD systems have come back as dedicated vision subsystems and will soon be found even in embedd...
