:The computer based aspect should be, certainly. However, the brain-based portion should be in a separate article. You could either leave that here, or make [[Parallel processing]] a disambiguation page, and move the brain information to something like [[Parallel processing (brain)]]. I favor the latter, as that helps reduce the chance that future editors adding computer based info into the brain article. -- 15:09, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

A program being executed across n processors might execute n times faster than it would using a single processor.
