Abstract

An enormous body of image and video processing software has been written for conventional (sequential) desktop computers. These implement a wide range of operations, such as convolution, histogram equalization and template matching. These applications usually have a tremendous potential for parallelism. However a significant barrier in exploiting such parallelism is the difficulty of writing parallel software. In this work, the design and implementation of MPIIMGEN -- a code transformer that automatically transforms these sequential image processing codes into parallel codes that are capable of running on a cluster of workstations is presented. This tool uses a pattern driven approach to parallelize the sequential codes.

MPIIMGEN——一个代码转换器，它将图像处理代码并行化，以便在工作站集群上运行

为传统的(顺序的)台式计算机编写了大量的图像和视频处理软件。这些实现了广泛的操作，如卷积，直方图均衡和模板匹配。这些应用程序通常具有巨大的并行性潜力。然而，开发这种并行性的一个重要障碍是编写并行软件的困难。在这项工作中，MPIIMGEN的设计和实现——一个代码转换器，自动将这些顺序图像处理代码转换成能够在工作站集群上运行的并行代码。该工具使用模式驱动的方法来并行化顺序代码。
