Abstract
From the Publisher: The use of parallel and distributed computing has grown dramatically in recent years, resulting in a flood of projects, implementations, and buzzwords. Dr. Leopold cuts through the confusion, presenting a logical and comprehensive survey of the different methodologies used for constructing parallel and distributed systems. Methods are presented independently of language and platform.

Parallel implementation for 3D medical volume fuzzy segmentation

TL;DR: A hybrid parallel implementation of FCM for extracting volume objects from medical files is proposed and it is concluded that the parallel implementation is 5X faster than the sequential version of the same operation.

Symbolic discriminant analysis of microarray data in autoimmune disease

TL;DR: In this paper, symbolic discriminant analysis (SDA) is used for the automatic selection of gene expression variables and discriminant functions that can take any form, and it is shown that SDA is capable of identifying combinations of genes expression variables that are able to classify and predict autoimmune diseases.
