Abstract :
In this paper we describe the design criteria for a Parallel Symbolic Language for Vision Analysis. The essential feature of a such language is the use of the notion of structured parallelism in order to capture all the forms of parallelism used in vision analysis. After introducing the need for Symbolic Parallel languages for the vision analysis, we show how PARALATION LISP can be extended to manage it in a user transparent way. Then, we describe the design criteria used for our Parallel Symbolic Vision Analysis Language project and the current implementation status
