ABSTRACT:
In an image processing system for generating an image of a three dimensional structure using a volume data, having a plurality of nodes coupled via a network, said one of plurality of nodes is constituted in combination with a control portion comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a communication control portion, said control portion is operative to segment each of a plurality of image processing requests into a plurality of jobs in an image processing operation that use the volume data, monitor a calculation resource amount for each of said plurality of nodes on the job accepting side to obtain a calculation resource information, said calculation resource information being calculated from at least any one of a current load factor, a performance record in the past, a node status specification, and a distance to the node on the network, select at least one node on the job accepting side based on said calculation resource information, and transmit one of said segmented jobs to said selected node.
