Abstract

A parallel implementation of the 2D discrete wavelet transform on a distributed memory multiprocessor system called PARNEU is presented. The mapping has been chosen with consideration to load balancing and communication methods in order to achieve the best possible scalability and performance in transforming one single image. Detailed performance figures are included. Experimental results show that significant parallel speedup is reached with this mapping
