In computer architecture, Amdahl's law (or Amdahl's argument) is a formula which gives the theoretical speedup in latency of the execution of a task at fixed workload that can be expected of a system whose resources are improved. Specifically, it states that "the overall performance improvement gained by optimizing a single part of a system is limited by the fraction of time that the improved part is actually used".

<parallel> (Named after Gene Amdahl) If F is the fraction of
a calculation that is sequential, and (1-F) is the fraction
that can be parallelised, then the maximum speedup that can
be achieved by using P processors is 1/(F+(1-F)/P).
