The parallelization of software is a significant ongoing topic of research. Cointegration of multiprocessor applications provides flexibility in network architecture design. Adaptability within parallel models is an additional feature of systems utilizing these protocols.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Duran |first1=A |title=Ompss: a proposal for programming heterogeneous multi-core architectures |journal=Parallel Processing Letters |date=2011 |volume=21 |issue=2|pages=173–193 |doi=10.1142/S0129626411000151 }}</ref>
In the consumer market, dual-core processors (that is, microprocessors with two units) started becoming commonplace on personal computers in the late 2000s.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Definition of dual core |url=https://www.pcmag.com/encyclopedia/term/dual-core |access-date=2023-10-27 |website=PCMAG |language=en}}</ref> Quad-core processors were also being adopted in that era for higher-end systems before becoming standard. In the late 2010s, hexa-core (six cores) started entering the mainstream<ref>{{Cite web |title=Intel taking its six-core processors mainstream in 2018 with Coffee Lake family |url=https://www.zdnet.com/article/intel-taking-its-six-core-processors-mainstream-in-2018-with-coffee-lake-family/ |access-date=2023-10-27 |website=ZDNET |language=en}}</ref> and since the early 2020s has overtaken quad-core in many spaces.<ref>{{Cite news |
