deterministic computation

[/ˌdɛtərˈmɪnɪstɪk kəmˌpjuːˈteɪʃən/]
nounfemininepl: computações determinísticas
computação determinística
1. A computational process where the output is completely determined by the input and the rules of the algorithm, with no randomness or non-deterministic elements involved
Deterministic computation ensures that the same input will always produce the same output, making debugging and verification easier.
A computação determinística garante que a mesma entrada sempre produzirá a mesma saída, facilitando a depuração e verificação.
2. In computer science, a computation model where the next state of the system is uniquely determined by the current state, without probabilistic or random components
Most traditional algorithms rely on deterministic computation to ensure predictable and reproducible results.
A maioria dos algoritmos tradicionais depende de computação determinística para garantir resultados previsíveis e reproduzíveis.
This is a technical term primarily used in academic and professional settings in both Brazil and the United States. It is fundamental to computer science education and is consistently translated across Portuguese-speaking countries. The term reflects the importance of reproducibility and predictability in computing systems.
