Detection and Analysis of ECG Based on Parallel Computing Technology

In this paper, a parallel model for the detection and analysis of electrocardiogram (ECG) will be defined. First of all, the parameters of digital FIR filter are worked out, with the help of MATLAB. Before any parallel model being defined, the serial algorithms of detection and analysis of ECG are discussed. Then each serial algorithm will be parallelized to build our parallel model. At the end of this paper, an parallel program based on Message Passing Interface (MPI) would be used to validate the parallel model. The parallel computer, which we worked on, is an IBM cluster with 15 nodes. As shown in the experimental results, the efficiency of detection and analysis of ECG will be significantly improved, by using the parallel model.
