👉 Rarely computing refers to the process of performing computations or tasks that are infrequently executed or have low frequency, often due to their computational cost being high or their occurrence being sporadic. These tasks might not benefit from the efficiency of optimized, high-throughput computing resources or parallel processing architectures. Instead, they are typically handled by specialized, low-power devices or embedded systems designed for specific, less demanding computations. In the context of cloud computing and distributed systems, rarely computing tasks might be offloaded to edge devices or specialized hardware like GPUs or TPUs when the demand is low, ensuring that resources are used efficiently and cost-effectively. This approach balances the need for high-performance computing with the practical constraints of resource allocation and energy consumption.
