High-Throughput Parallel Processing

Definition

High-throughput parallel processing involves executing many computational tasks or transactions simultaneously to achieve rapid overall completion. This method significantly enhances the performance of distributed systems, including certain blockchain architectures, by dividing workloads into smaller, independent units that can be processed concurrently. It aims to maximize the number of operations handled per second, directly addressing scalability limitations often encountered in sequential processing models. This approach is fundamental for supporting a large volume of users and complex decentralized applications.
