Amdahl's law - wikipedia.org  ## Metadata - Author: **wikipedia.org** - Full Title: Amdahl's law - Category: #articles - URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amdahl%27s_law ## Highlights - The theoretical speedup of the latency of the execution of a program as a function of the number of processors executing it, according to Amdahl's law. The speedup is limited by the serial part of the program. For example, if 95% of the program can be parallelized, the theoretical maximum speedup using parallel computing would be 20 times.
