parallelize

The engineer will parallelize the two cables for the new circuit.

Definition
  1. Verb:
    • To make parallel; to cause to be or run parallel to something else: The core meaning is to arrange or position things so they are parallel to each other. This involves aligning lines, processes, or objects side-by-side with equal distance between them and no intersection.
    • To adapt or design (a process, computation, or system) so that multiple operations can be executed simultaneously: In computing, it means to break down a task into smaller sub-tasks that can be processed concurrently on multiple processors or cores to improve efficiency and speed.
Usage Examples
  • Verb (Physical Alignment):
    • The engineer needed to parallelize the two rails for the model train track.
    • To ensure stability, the carpenter carefully parallelized the support beams.
  • Verb (Computing/Processes):
    • The software developer worked to parallelize the algorithm to take advantage of the multi-core processor.
    • We must parallelize these data processing tasks to meet the deadline.
Advanced Usage
  • "To parallelize a workload": To distribute units of work across multiple computing resources.
    • The key to high-performance computing is the ability to effectively parallelize a workload.
  • "To parallelize execution": To enable different parts of a program to run at the same time.
    • The new compiler can automatically parallelize execution of certain loops.
Variants and Related Words
  • Parallel (adj/n/v): Having the same direction, course, or nature; a comparison; to be similar or corresponding to.
    • The two stories run parallel to each other.
  • Parallelization (n): The act or process of making something parallel, especially in computing.
    • The parallelization of the code resulted in a tenfold speed increase.
  • Parallelizable (adj): Capable of being made parallel or broken into concurrent tasks.
    • Not all algorithms are easily parallelizable.
Synonyms
  • Align: To arrange in a line or bring into alignment.
  • Concurrentize: (Technical) To make operations occur simultaneously. (Note: This is a less common technical synonym.)
Related Phrases
  • "Parallelize across threads/cores": A technical phrase describing the distribution of tasks in a computing environment.
    • The goal is to parallelize the calculation across all 16 available CPU cores.
  • "Parallelize with respect to": Often used in technical contexts to indicate what element the parallelism is based on.
    • We can parallelize the simulation with respect to each independent data point.
