In this paper a parallel software system based on Differential Evolution for the registration of images is designed, implemented and tested on a set of 2---D remotely sensed images on two problems, i.e. mosaicking and changes in time. Registration is carried out by finding the most suitable affine transformation in terms of maximization of the mutual information between the first image and the transformation of the second one, without any need for setting control points. A coarse---grained distributed version is implemented on a cluster of personal computers.
