In the context of parallel computing, the "broadcast" pattern refers to a method of distributing data from one source (often a master node or processor) to multiple target nodes or processors in a parallel system. This is particularly useful in scenarios where a specific piece of information needs to be shared with many other processors for them to perform their computations. \#\#\# Key Characteristics of the Broadcast Pattern: 1. **One-to-Many Communication**: The broadcast operation involves one sender and multiple receivers.
