In [[Parallelparallel computing]], a paradigm in computing which has multiple tasks running simultaneously, might contain what is known as an '''embarrassingly parallel''' workload or problem (also called '''perfectly parallel''', '''delightfully parallel''' or '''pleasingly parallel'''{{citation needed|date=October 2020}}).An embarrassingly parallel task can be considered a trivialis caseone -where little or no manipulationeffort is needed to separate the problem into a number of parallel tasks.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Herlihy|first1=Maurice|last2=Shavit|first2=Nir|title=The Art of Multiprocessor Programming, Revised Reprint|date=2012|publisher=Elsevier|isbn=9780123977953|page=14|edition=revised|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vfvPrSz7R7QC&q=embarrasingly#v=onepage&q=embarrasingly&f=false|access-dateaccessdate=28 February 2016|quote=Some computational problems are “embarrassingly parallel”: they can easily be divided into components that can be executed concurrently.}}</ref> This is often the case where there is little or no dependency or need for communication between those parallel tasks, or for results between them.<ref name=dbpp>Section 1.4.4 of: {{cite book
