Abstract:This paper presents a description and performance evaluation of an efficient and reliable edge-detection tool that utilize the growing computational power of local area networks (LANs). It is therefore referred to as LAN-based edge detection (LANED) tool. The processor-farm methodology is used in porting the sequential edge-detection calculations to run efficiently on the LAN. In this methodology, each computer on the LAN executes the same program independently from other computers, each operating on different… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
