  [1X11.1 [33X[0;0YAn embarassingly parallel computation[133X[101X
  
  [33X[0;0YThe   following   example   creates  five  child  processes  and  uses  them
  simultaneously  to  compute  the second integral homology of each of the [22X267[122X
  groups of order [22X64[122X. The final command shows that[133X
  
  [33X[0;0Y[22XH_2(G, Z)= Z_2^15[122X[133X
  
  [33X[0;0Yfor the [22X267[122X-th group [22XG[122X in [12XGAP[112X's library of small groups.[133X
