Java Multithreading and Parallel Programming Masterclass - Amdahl's Law

The video tutorial introduces Mdal's Law, a fundamental concept in parallel computing, developed by Jean MDL in 1967. It explains how the law helps estimate the speed up of a program based on its serial and parallel sections. The tutorial covers the concept of speed up, using latency as a performance metric, and demonstrates how to apply Mdal's Law to predict performance improvements. It also discusses the limitations of the law, emphasizing that the overall speed up is constrained by the serial portion of the program, even with an infinite number of CPUs.
