Parallel Processing
This page outlines the principles and applications of parallel processing, focusing on its implementation in advanced AI workflows.
Overview
Parallel processing is a form of computation where tasks are divided among multiple processors or threads to execute concurrently. This technique significantly enhances performance by reducing the time required for complex computations.
Key Concepts
- Concurrency: The ability of a system to handle multiple processes simultaneously.
- Distributed Computing: A model in which components located on networked computers communicate and coordinate their actions only by passing messages.
- Multi-threading: A technique that allows a single process to execute multiple threads concurrently, optimizing CPU utilization.
