Algorithmic skeleton

In computing, algorithmic skeletons (a.k.a. Parallelism Patterns) are a high-level parallel programming model for parallel and distributed computing.

Description

Algorithmic skeletons take advantage of common programming patterns to hide the complexity of parallel and distributed applications.

Starting from a basic set of patterns (skeletons), more complex patterns can be built by combining the basic ones.
