Serial execution

Front

A problem is broken into a discrete series of instructions. Then instructions are executed one after another

Back

Parallel overhead

Front

Amount of time required to coordinate parallel tasks.

Back

Parallel computing

Front

Simultaneous use of multiple compute resources to solve a computational problem

Back

Task

Front

A logically discrete section of computational work

Back

Parallel task

Front

It can be executed by multiple processors safely. It yields correct results

Back

Distributed

Front

Network based memory access. Tasks must use communications to access memory on other machines where other tasks are executing

Back

Granularity

Front

A qualitative measure of the radio of computation to communication

Back

Flynn's taxonomy

Front

Single instruction/Single data, Single instruction/Multiple data, Multiple instruction/Single data, Multiple instruction/Multiple data

Back

Shared memory

Front

All processors have different access to common physical memory. It describes a model where different parallel tasks access the same logical memory locations.

Back

Serial computing

Front

One statement at a time. This happens on a one-processor machine

Back

Synchronization

Front

The coordination of parallel tasks in real time. It is associated with communications. It usually involves waiting for at least one task to be completed
