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 5, English, - highly%20parallel%20architecture

The power output can be enhanced by connecting two transistors in parallel or by using the push-pull connection. In the latter method, the two transistors are so connected that the collector current in one transistor falls when that in the other transistor rises. The distinct advantage of the push-pull operation over the parallel connection is that the symmetry of the circuit in the former operation eliminates the even-order harmonic distortion. 2, record 6, English, - push%2Dpull%20operation

A universal joint is a positive, mechanical connection between rotating shafts, which are usually not parallel, but intersecting. They are used to transmit motion, power, or both. The simplest and most common type is called the Cardan joint or Hooke joint... It consists of two yokes, one on each shaft, connected by a cross-shaped intermediate member called the spider. The angle between the two shafts is called the operating angle. It is generally, but not necessarily, constant during operation. Good design practice calls for low operating angles, often less than 25°, depending on the application. Independent of this guideline, mechanical interference in the construction of Cardan joints limits the operating angle to a maximum(often about 37½°, depending on its proportions. 3, record 13, English, - Hooke%20joint

The Export Development Corporation seeks the active involvement of banks and other financial institutions in supporting Canadian exports; bank participation is encouraged wherever possible. Such instances include the financing of downpayments, interest during construction, local cost financing, as well as direct participation in the financing of the Canadian goods and services being exported. This bank involvement may take the form of co-lending, where both EDC and the banks are jointly involved in the loan negotiation; participation, where EDC invites a bank into a loan that has already been negotiated; and parallel lending, where both EDC and the bank make separate loan agreements with the foreign borrower in connection with a single transaction. These arrangements occur during or after the loan negotiation stage; the exporter is usually not a party to this process beyond the choosing of the commercial bank. 1, record 18, English, - bank%20participation

La Société pour l'Expansion des Exportations recherche la participation active des banques et d'autres institutions financières à l'appui des exportations canadiennes et, de ce fait, encourage leur participation chaque fois que cela est possible, que ce soit par exemple pour financer les acomptes, les intérêts durant la période de construction et les frais locaux ou pour participer directement au financement des biens et services canadiens exportés. Cet apport bancaire peut prendre la forme de prêts conjoints, lorsque la SEE et les banques participent conjointement à la négociation de prêts; de participation, lorsque la SEE invite une banque à contribuer à un prêt déjà négocié; ou de financement parallèle, lorsque la SEE et la banque signent avec l'emprunteur étranger des conventions de prêt distinctes pour une même opération. Ces arrangements sont conclus durant ou après la négociation du prêt, si bien que l'exportateur est habituellement exclu de ce processus, sauf pour ce qui est du choix de la banque commerciale. 1, record 18, French, - participation%20bancaire

Steam Supply Main. The supply main carries steam from the boiler to the radiators connected along its length. It also carries condensate accumulation from these units back to the drip connection.

The aircraft are normally parked in radial or parallel positions around the satellite, which can have common or separate departure lounges.
