multi-pass algorithm
[ˈmʌl.ti.pæs ˈæl.ɡə.rɪ.ðəm]
nounpl: multi-pass algorithms
🇧🇷 algoritmo de múltiplas passagens
1. A computational algorithm that processes input data multiple times in sequence, where each pass applies specific operations and may use results from previous passes to refine or complete the computation
The compiler uses a multi-pass algorithm to optimize code by analyzing dependencies in the first pass and applying transformations in subsequent passes.
O compilador utiliza um algoritmo de múltiplas passagens para otimizar o código, analisando dependências na primeira passagem e aplicando transformações nas passagens subsequentes.
2. A processing technique where data is traversed or scanned more than once to achieve a desired result that cannot be accomplished in a single iteration
Image processing software often employs a multi-pass algorithm to apply filters and effects with increasing precision.
Software de processamento de imagem frequentemente emprega um algoritmo de múltiplas passagens para aplicar filtros e efeitos com precisão crescente.
💡 This term is primarily used in academic and professional computing contexts in both Brazil and Portugal. It is a technical term with no regional variations in meaning. In Brazil, computer science professionals typically use the English term 'multi-pass algorithm' interchangeably with the Portuguese 'algoritmo de múltiplas passagens' in technical discussions and documentation.
