A study of digital holographic filter generation
Problems associated with digital computer generation of holograms are discussed along with a criteria for producing optimum digital holograms. This criteria revolves around amplitude resolution and spatial frequency limitations induced by the computer and plotter process

Random phase-free kinoform for large objects
We propose a random phase-free kinoform for large objects. When not using the
random phase in kinoform calculation, the reconstructed images from the
kinoform are heavy degraded, like edge-only preserved images. In addition, the
kinoform cannot record an entire object that exceeds the kinoform size because
the object light does not widely spread. In order to avoid this degradation and
to widely spread the object light, the random phase is applied to the kinoform
calculation; however, the reconstructed image is contaminated by speckle noise.
In this paper, we overcome this problem by using our random phase-free method
and error diffusion method

Replay of digitally-recorded holograms using a computational grid
Since the calculations are independent, each plane within an in-line digital hologram of a particle field can be reconstructed by a separate computer. We investigate strategies to reproduce a complete sample volume as quickly and efficiently as possible using Grid computing. We used part of the EGEE Grid to reconstruct multiple sets of planes in parallel across a wide-area network, and collated the replayed images on a single Storage Element such that a subsequent particle tracking and analysis code might then be run. Although most of the sample volume is generated up to 20 times faster on a Grid, there are some stragglers which cause the reconstruction rate to slow, and a significant proportion of jobs get lost completely, leaving blocks missing from the sample volume. In the light of these experimental findings we propose some strategies for making Grid computing useful in the field of digital hologram reconstruction and analysis
