Real processing components along with component simulators are combined together to construct a new virtual prototyping system. The increase in component simulators result in degraded performance of the simulation in distributed systems. The speed of simulation can be increased by doing parallel simulation techniques. Prime number test and Image edge detection are chosen to implement the parallel simulation techniques and achieved the expected results while implementing in real time applications. The prime number test calculates the number of processors in a system and the image edge detection can be done in two stages by Canny Edge detection and Sobel Edge detection. The Canny Edge detection is used to detect the edges in the images by using a multi-stage algorithm. The smaller, separable and integer valued filter in images are combined in horizontal and vertical directions by using the Sobel edge detection resulting in reduction of implementation cost. The tool named OpenMP is used for implementing the parallel simulation techniques by combining both the canny edge and Sobel edge detection. An add-on named MPI is used along with the OpenMP to reduce the implementation time in parallel processing.

Image processing is an interesting domain for extracting knowledge from real time video and images for surveillance, automation, robotics, medical and entertainment industries. The data obtained from videos and images are continuous and hold a primary role in semantic based video analysis, retrieval and indexing. When images and videos are obtained from natural and random sources, they need to be processed for identifying text, tracking, binarization and recognising meaningful information for succeeding actions. This proposal defines a solution with assistance of Spectral Graph Wave Transform (SGWT) technique for localizing and extracting text information from images and videos. K Means clustering technique precedes the SGWT process to group features in an image from a quantifying Hill Climbing algorithm. Precision, Sensitivity, Specificity and Accuracy are the four parameters which declares the efficiency of proposed technique. Experimentation is done from training sets from ICDAR and YVT for videos.

The diseases in the Brinjal can be identified through the symptoms occur in Brinjal leaf. The indication in touch difference bin of various plant diseases. The designation of disease detection need the specialist's opinion. The inappropriate identification can result in tremendous quantity of economic loss for farmers. Rather than manual identification, computers are accustomed to give automatic detection and classifying differing kinds of diseases. In this paper, lesion areas affected by diseases are segmented using different techniques, namely DeltaE, Otsu, FCM, k-means algorithm are employed. The proposed method is the image blend by discrete wavelet transforms to increase the excellence of image and reduce uncertainty and redundancy for identification and assessment of agricultural yield which can be done by DeltaE. Further color, texture and structural based features are mixed collectively for getting better performance when compared with single feature extraction.
