Amdahl's law - Not everything can be paralleled and optimized
Amdahl’s law is a formula used in parallel computing to find the maximum improvement improvement possible by improving a particular part of a system. In parallel computing, Amdahl's law is mainly used to predict the theoretical maximum speedup for program processing using multiple processors. It is named after Gene Amdahl, a computer architect from IBM and the Amdahl Corporation.
To understand the law lets consider a single processor system which completes a job in 10 Hours. To improve the...
