Abstract
The image processing capability of a multiple instruction stream, multiple data stream (MIMD) architecture, based on a network of transputers, has been evaluated for the case of the parallel implementation of a digital median filter. An effort has been made to give a clearly explained, practical use of transputers, which make parallel processing an affordable affair. The software and the hardware architectures are described along with basic results
