Parallel Processing or Parallelization

Parallel processing, also known as parallelization, is a technique used to process data simultaneously in a side-by-side or parallel manner on a blockchain network or other computer network infrastructure. It involves executing multiple calculations or tasks concurrently. Parallel processing is commonly employed in sharding and other methods to enhance transaction processing speed and scalability. It often utilizes multi-core processing systems that leverage multiple processor units simultaneously to optimize system performance.
