| The term Parallelism (in Computer Science) refers to a technique that allow two or more computing tasks to execute at the same time. A key problem of parallelism is to reduce data dependencies in order to be able to perform computations on independent computation units with minimal communication between them. To this end, it can even be an advantage to do the same computation twice on different units. | The term Parallelism (in Computer Science) refers to a technique that allow two or more computing tasks to execute at the same time.
