Massively parallel architecture. Some modern supercomputers have thousands of simple processors. Complex mathematical tasks are split up into thousands of tiny sub-tasks, and each sub-task is given to a single processor. For instance, when modelling a weather system or chemical reaction, each processor can simulate the movement of a molecule or group of molecules. When modelling nuclear reactions, each processor can act out the movement of a sub-atomic particle. 3, record 4, English, - highly%20parallel%20architecture

(beside) binary trees, HOS also permits one parent node to have more than two offsprings. In this case, the offspring are dealt with a pair at a time from right to left. If in doubt about whether a certain n-ary branch is valid, the user should break it down into its binary equivalent. 1, record 14, English, - n%2Dary%20branch

An HOS machine. A machine could be built to execute the JOIN, INCLUDE and OR primitives. It would thus have a much narrower instruction set than today's computers. The code generated would relate directly to the machine [and] because the machine has a narrow instruction set it could be made much faster. 1, record 17, English, - higher%20order%20machine

The HOS mathematical axioms relate to the three primitive control structures JOIN, INCLUDE, and OR. These structures, however, are often confining. The user can be provided with other control structures which themselves are built out of the primitive structures. Employment of these other structures is automatically verified for correct use. HOS provides four commonly used nonprimitive control structures : COJOIN, COINCLUDE, COOR, CONCUR. 1, record 20, English, - co%2Dcontrol%20structure
