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 of inexpensive PCs. The experimental results for different image sizes and system configurations showed close to linear speedup. Experiments to test dynamic load balancing were also performed.
