Abstract

Simulation of the electrical activity of the heart by modelization of the action potential propagation is a computational and memory intensive process. In addition many studies, such as the investigation of the ischemia phenomenon, require the execution of lots of parametric simulations, what increases the computational problem by several orders of magnitude. This paper presents the integration of a parallel simulator for the action potential propagation on cardiac tissues into a Grid infrastructure under the Globus Toolkit and InnerGrid middlewares.
