Abstract: A quasi-automatic method is provided to parallelize user programs with little or no changes in their original design, implementation or compiled binary code. The users issues a simple indication to inform a runtime system about the intent to run the programs in a parallel or distributed manner, and the runtime system executes a plurality of programs based on the original program to conduct the same computation with parallelization. The semantics of the original program is reused, and task instances are created based on the semantics and executed in parallel or distributedly. The method provides an easy yet reliable method for accelerating computation by distributing the original program processes on multiple computers. Through a semantics-aware I/O control and coordination, the runtime system improves the consistency between the logical result data generated by the parallel computation and the expected result data from the original program should it be executed on one computer.

Abstract: This disclosure concerns processing of electronic images, such as hyperspectral or multispectral images. A processor performs a method for estimating an illumination spectrum of an image which defines an input spectrum for each point of the image. The processor determines for each point of a first set of points a measure of variation in relation to the input spectrum of that point. The processor then selects one point from the first set based on the measure of variation. The processor determines a cluster of points based on the input spectrum of the selected point and determines an estimate for the illumination spectrum based on the input spectra of points in the cluster. Since the processor selects a point based on the measure of variation and then determines a cluster based on that point, it performs better than using other methods where the cluster is determined based on a random starting point, for example.

Abstract: The disclosure concerns processing of electronic images, such as hyperspectral or multispectral images (302) to determine an output color value for a component spectrum of a decomposed multispectral or hyperspectral image. A processor (120) first determines or accesses the component spectrum and a first color value for the component spectrum and receives an input color value for a pixel location in the image, wherein the component spectrum contributes to the pixel. The processor (120) then determines the output color value for the component spectrum based on the first color value for the component spectrum, the input color value and a utility score and stores the output color value for the component spectrum on a datastore (118). It is an advantage that the processor (120) receives a color value for a pixel location but the output color value is not exactly the received color value but one that is determined based on a utility score.

Abstract: A task coordination apparatus in a computing system having a distributed shared memory (DSM) coordinates the execution of two related tasks, wherein the second task has an execution variable which is modified by the first task. The task coordination apparatus creates a snapshot of a memory space in the distributed shared memory assigned to the first task and a cooperation watching area of the second task. The cooperation watching area contains a memory address pointing to a location where the execution variable of the second task is stored in the memory space assigned to the first task. The first task is allocated to a first computing node for execution, and the memory space assigned to it is updated according to the execution result. After updating the memory space, the second task is allocated to a second computing node for execution using the execution variable updated by the first task.
