Parallel computing is the art of programming computers that have more than one processor. Some parallel computers are just regular workstations that have more than one processor in them; others are giant single computers with many processors (these are generally referred to as <i>supercomputers</i>); and others are networks of individual computers. A network of computers configured to coordinate on computing problems is also called a <i>cluster</i>. A parallel computer may be able to run programs much faster than a traditional single computer.<p>Programs that work on a single-processor computer don't automatically work on a parallel computer. The programmer must explicitly specify how to divide up the computing work between all of the available <i>nodes</i>. Information about writing programs especially for parallel computers is in <a href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Parallel_Computing/Programming">Parallel_Computing/Programming</a>. Many people have written <a href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Parallel_Computing/Programming/Libraries">libraries</a> to help programmers write applications for parallel computers.<p>Parallel computing is a very similar field to <a href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Computer_Science/Distributed_Computing">distributed computing</a>. Both types of computing involve breaking apart a problem into many pieces and assigning each part to a computer, but the nodes of a <i>distributed computer</i> normally not communicate with each other while performing their computations, because they may be great distances apart. Sites related to distributed computing are in <a href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Computer_Science/Distributed_Computing">Computers/Computer_Science/Distributed_Computing</a>. <p> Information about supercomputers is located in <a href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Supercomputing">Computers/Supercomputing</a>.
