👉 In computer science, "dropwise" is a term used to describe an algorithm that makes use of multiple threads or processes in parallel execution. These algorithms are designed to efficiently process large amounts of data by distributing it across multiple processors or cores. The main idea behind this approach is to use the resources of fewer processors or cores than needed to perform a single operation, which can significantly reduce the overall processing time and memory usage. This technique is often used in parallel computing frameworks such as Apache Spark for efficient
