| **Parallel Processing** is a method in computing of running two or more processors (CPUs) to handle separate parts of an overall task. Breaking up different parts of a task among multiple processors will help reduce the amount of time to run a program. Any system that has more than one CPU can perform parallel processing, as well as multi-core processors which are commonly found on computers today. | **Parallel Processing** is a method in computing of running two or more processors (CPUs) to handle separate parts of an overall task.
