Resumen
The programing language Python has been rapidly gaining in popularity and it has now become the first choice for implementing all kinds of systems in different software development fields. Programmers now use it for parallel processing on multicore and manycore architectures through specific modules such as Numba, PyCuda or mpi4Py. Much analysis work has been conducted to compare the performance of Python and commonly-used programming languages such as Java. This article presents a further comparison by solving the Belousov-Zhabotinsky oscillating reaction problem with both languages by using symmetrical multiprocessing with data partition.
