      Adaptive noise canceling and edge detection in images using PVM on a NOW 

      Mylonas, S. A.; Trancoso, Pedro; Trimikliniotis, Michael (IEEE, 2000)
      A method for the processing of digital images using a two-dimensional LMS adaptive filter for noise reduction and subsequent edge detection is presented. This was implemented on a Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) consisting ...
