Parallelisation of the watershed segmentation method is studied in this paper. Starting with a successful parallel watershed design solution, extensive tests on various parallel machines are presented to prove its portability and performance. Next, the watershed algorithm has been re-formulated as a modified connected component problem. Consequently, we present a scalable parallel implementation of the connected component problem, which is the key for the future improving of the parallel design for the watershed algorithm.
