What is another word for Concurrency?
Pronunciation: [kənkˈʌɹənsi] (IPA) 
Concurrency is a term often used in computing to describe the concept of two or more tasks or processes occurring simultaneously. Synonyms for concurrency include parallelism, multitasking, co-occurrence, and simultaneousness. Parallelism refers to the execution of multiple processes at the same time, often on different processors or cores. Multitasking is similar, but usually refers to the ability to switch between different processes quickly, allowing them to appear to happen concurrently even if they are not truly executing at the same time. Co-occurrence and simultaneousness both describe the state of things happening at the same time, but without implying any particular execution paradigm.
