Publisher's Synopsis
The next generation of engineering and computing systems will be both complex and distributed in functionality due to a variety of information sources needed for their operation. Successful development and deployment of these systems critically depends on the mechanisms for acquisition, coordination, communication and integration of information from various components. This collection of papers addresses various aspects in the area of signal and image integration with a specific emphasis on parallel and distributed solutions. A wide spectrum of issues including image and signal processing, parallel architectures/algorithms, sensor integration/fusion, and neural networks/fuzzy systems, are addressed in various papers.
