β¦ Synopsis
Heydorn, S. and P. Weidner, Optimization and performance analysis of thinning algorithms on parallel computers, Parallel Computing 17 (1991) 17-27. This paper presents a concept for an implementation of different parallel thinning algorithms on parallel processors. The emphasis is put on a good parallelization using fine granularity and the simultaneous usage of vectorization_ Results and experiences are discussed which have been obtained on the supercomputers CRAY X-MP/416 and CRAY Y-MPS/832 by realizing this concept, applied to one particular algorithm.
