  • Abstract
    This paper describes an application that simulates a virtual 3D map of Romania together with the basic components used for extracting features from satellite images on hybrid computing architectures. The considered architectures are Intel Quad-Core Xeons handling post-transformation routines and decision making code and IBM PowerXCell 8i processors employed as accelerators for computing intensive image processing tasks.
