Abstract
In hospital services, practitioners need to access and study large data volume (3D images) with help of specific, parallel, high performance processing tools. This work describes the ARAMIS platform (A Remote Access Medical Imaging System), which allows transparent remote access to parallel image processing libraries. Such system is based on a communication protocol which takes as input parallel libraries (written in C) and leads to objects, which can be combined easily. The end-user application is a Java applet, allowing any common workstation to activate, in a convivial way, time-consuming parallel processing.
This work is supported by the Région Rhône-Alpes under the grant “Santé et Calcul Haute-Performance” (Health and High Performance Computing).
