Abstract:Abstract-The "Locked-in" syndrome is a neurological disorder caused by an insult to the ventral pons, most commonly an infarct, haemorrhage, or trauma. The characteristics of the syndrome are quadriplegia and anarthria with preservation of consciousness [1]. This "work-in-progress" shows an innovative use of parallelization for implementing an algorithm to compute the level of consciousness proposed by Tononi [2]. Finally, we describe the steps for integrating parallel computation to overcome high complexity o… Show more
