An Integrated Environment for Dynamic Processes in distributed Image Analysis System

Abstract

Distributed systems, sharing same network, are composed by multiple high-performance microcomputers. To improve the performance of such system is necessary to distribute the occurred processes following a suitable approach. To do that, a set of parameters and two composed objects (Tablet and Bonnet: in brief, an extended task and an asynchronous worker respectively) have been defined to satisfy the distribution the tasks. These objects allow to arrange the distribution of processes and data, on the processors, in static and dynamic way. An high level interactive iconic environment, with a set of visual tools, has been developed to improve the management of the resource and to execute the active monitoring for testing the evolution of the system. Experiments for the evaluation of the dynamic distributed environment at the maximum of load condition has been performed. Standard image analysis algorithms, following a dynamic distributed archetype, have been performed on set of heterogeneous machines.
