Monitoring and migration of a PETSc-based parallel application for medical imaging in a grid computing PSE

Abstract

In last decades, imaging techniques became central to the diagnostic process providing the medical community with a fast growing amounts of information held in images. This implies developing computational tools which allow a reliable, robust and efficient processing of data and enhanced analysis. Moreover, clinicians may have the need to explore collaborative approaches and to exchange diagnostic information from available data. A medical experiment often involves not a single approach but a set of processings that should be sometimes executed concurrently. © 2007 International Federation for Information Processing.
