Parallel Processing

Parallel Processing reduces processing time by simultaneously breaking up and running program tasks on multiple microprocessors. There are more engines (CPUs) running, which makes the program run faster. It is particularly useful when running programs that perform complex computations, and it provides a viable option to the quest for cheaper computing alternatives. Supercomputers commonly have hundreds of thousands of microprocessors for this purpose. Parallel programming is an evolution of serial computing where the jobs are broken into discrete parts that can be executed concurrently. It is further broken down to a series of instructions and the instructions from each part execute simultaneously on different CPUs.
