Fractal Image Compression on MIMD Architectures II: Classification Based Speed-up Methods

Since fractal image compression is computationally very expensive, speed-up techniques are required in addition to parallel processing in order to compress large images in reasonable time. In this paper we discuss parallel fractal image compression algorithms suited for MIMD architectures which employ block classification as speed-up method.
