Multiprocessing

multiprocessing runs code in separate processes, using multiple CPU cores for CPU-bound work.

from concurrent.futures import ProcessPoolExecutor
if __name__ == "__main__":            # required on Windows
    with ProcessPoolExecutor() as pool:
        results = list(pool.map(simulate, parameter_sets))

Data passed between processes is pickled, so send compact inputs and outputs.
