  2. Parallel computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_computing

    Parallel computing is a type of computation in which many calculations or processes are ... The same system may be characterized both as "parallel" and "distributed ...

  3. Parallel voting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_voting

    In political science, parallel voting or superposition refers to the use of two or more electoral systems to elect different members of a legislature. More precisely, an electoral system is a superposition if it is a mixture of at least two tiers, which do not interact with each other in any way; one part of a legislature is elected using one method, while another part is elected using a ...

  4. Parallel running - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_running

    Parallel running. The old and new systems are doing the same processing and operating side by side. Parallel running is a strategy for system changeover where a new system slowly assumes the roles of the older system while both systems operate simultaneously. [1][2] This conversion takes place as the technology of the old system is outdated so ...

  5. Data parallelism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_parallelism

    Data parallelism is parallelization across multiple processors in parallel computing environments. It focuses on distributing the data across different nodes, which operate on the data in parallel. It can be applied on regular data structures like arrays and matrices by working on each element in parallel. It contrasts to task parallelism as ...

  6. Concurrent computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_computing

    Concurrent computing. Concurrent computing is a form of computing in which several computations are executed concurrently —during overlapping time periods—instead of sequentially— with one completing before the next starts. This is a property of a system—whether a program, computer, or a network —where there is a separate execution ...

  7. Distributed computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_computing

    Distributed computing. Distributed computing is a field of computer science that studies distributed systems, defined as computer systems whose inter-communicating components are located on different networked computers. [1][2] The components of a distributed system communicate and coordinate their actions by passing messages to one another in ...

  8. Parallel algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_algorithm

    Parallel algorithm. In computer science, a parallel algorithm, as opposed to a traditional serial algorithm, is an algorithm which can do multiple operations in a given time. It has been a tradition of computer science to describe serial algorithms in abstract machine models, often the one known as random-access machine.

  9. Parallel coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_coordinates

    Parallel Coordinates plots are a common method of visualizing high-dimensional datasets to analyze multivariate data having multiple variables, or attributes. To plot, or visualize, a set of points in n -dimensional space, n parallel lines are drawn over the background representing coordinate axes, typically oriented vertically with equal spacing.
