Experimental Implementation of Embarrasingly Parallel Process in Analysis of Blood Glucose Concentration Using Atmega32 Microcontrollers

Abstract

This paper explains the development of a embedded based parallel system to measure glucose concentration of the blood samples. The developed instrument works on the principle of absorbance transmittance photometry usi ng ATmega32 microcontrollers. In order to handle more blood samples and reduce the response time of glucose analyzing process in large number of blood samples, the embarrassing parallel measurement operation is implemented. The proposed system architecture and the co-design of hardware and software are discussed in detail.The system is evaluated using the parameters of Speedup Factor, Efficiency and Throughput are studied. The result shows that system attained the linear speedup in measurement of blood samples.
