The process trellis architecture for real-time monitors
Michael Factor · 1990
The process trellis is a parallel software architecture for building heuristic real-time monitors. These programs, for example Intelligent Cardiovascular Monitors, must process massive quantities of data in real time. It is natural to turn to parallelism to meet these computational requirements. The process trellis software architecture is intended to simplify the creation and maintenance of heuristic real-time monitors. To do this it must be 1) modular, 2) efficient and 3) predictable.
