Overlapping execution in computing
the way a computer system works on several tasks at the same time or during overlapping time periods
Vzorec užití:
[system/software] supports/uses concurrency; concurrency in [program/system]
Častá chyba:
Do not assume concurrency always means parallelism; concurrent work may be interleaved on one processor rather than truly simultaneous.
Synonyma
overlapping execution (descriptive and close in technical meaning)
|
multitasking (more general; often used for users, operating systems, or work habits)
|
parallelism (related, but usually means actual simultaneous execution, often on multiple cores)
Antonyma
sequential execution (tasks run one after another rather than overlapping)
|
serial execution (technical term for operations processed in a single sequence)
|
single-threaded execution (one thread of control, often with little or no concurrency)
