A computational method that allows a quantum computer to execute algorithms simultaneously with one quantum processor by taking advantage of the quantum state superposition properties of qubits. 2, record 1, English, - quantum%20parallelism
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The basic idea behind quantum parallelism is that quantum computers, unlike their conventional counterparts, explore the full spectrum of possible computational outcomes/solutions simultaneously (i.e. in a single operation), while digital computers must plod along, looking at each solution in sequence. 3, record 1, English, - quantum%20parallelism
