ABSTRACT
Fingerprint matching is one of the most important problems in an Automatic Fingerprint Identification System. The Fingerprint matching is a high computational task, repetitive and arduous. Moreover, fingerprint databases are by nature large scale. Indeed, there is a need for flexible and independent solution for automatic distribution of fingerprint matching. So, this paper introduces an agent-based distributed matching system. The matching task distributed on a available local Network resources with an optimal way in order to ensure a fast matching process in large scale fingerprint databases. The distribution workload is ensured by our developed middleware allowing the monitoring and prediction of unexploited network computing resources, and designed for the implementation of intensive calculation services.
