Eric Miller and his colleagues' work concerns the development of tomographic processing methods for environmental remediation problems. Specifically, they are interested in using electrical resistance tomography (ERT) to estimate the geometry of regions of the subsurface contaminated by chemicals such as TCE or PCE. Though the concept of ERT is not unlike the more familiar computed axial tomography (CAT) used for medical imaging, the physics of ERT are a bit more complicated, thereby leading to computationally intensive methods for turning data into pictures. Luckily these computational issues are, at a high level, easily parallelizable. Thus, they have turned to Star-P as the tool of choice for the rapid synthesis of our algorithms.
