noun
synchronous processing

1. synchronous processing
A method of processing in which tasks are executed one at a time in sequence. Each task must complete before the next one begins, as opposed to asynchronous processing where tasks can run concurrently.
同期処理(どうきしょり)では応答(おうとう)を待(ま)つ必要(ひつよう)がある。
In synchronous processing, you need to wait for the response.
同期処理(どうきしょり)は単純(たんじゅん)だが、待(ま)ち時間(じかん)が長(なが)くなることがある。
Synchronous processing is simple, but wait times can become long.
大量(たいりょう)のデータを扱(あつか)う場合(ばあい)、同期処理(どうきしょり)よりも非同期処理(ひどうきしょり)のほうが効率(こうりつ)がいい。
When handling large amounts of data, asynchronous processing is more efficient than synchronous processing.

A computing term composed of 同期(どうき) (synchronization) and 処理(しょり) (processing). In synchronous processing, operations happen in order: the program sends a request and blocks until it gets a response. This contrasts with asynchronous processing, where the program continues executing while waiting.
