Fork/Join Framework

The Fork/Join Framework is a programming tool designed to improve the efficiency of multi-tasking in computers. It works by splitting a large, complex task into smaller, manageable subtasks that can be processed simultaneously, leveraging multiple processor cores. Once all subtasks are completed, their results are combined to produce the final outcome. This approach speeds up processing times and makes better use of hardware resources, especially for tasks that can be broken down into parallel operations, such as data processing or calculations.
