Abstract

An image reconstruction with use of EIT method has been found useful in many areas of medical, industrial and environmental applications. Papers show that computational systems used for image reconstructions are utilizing parallel and distributed computations and multi-tier architecture, as well as monolithic architecture. The aim of our research is to define an analytical system architecture that will be able to combine a variety of image reconstruction algorithms with their representations in different programming languages. Based on examples described in different proceedings and research papers, a microservices architecture seems to be an interesting alternative to the monolithic one.
