Single word for: calculator "for whole dataset at a time"

English Language & Usage Asked on December 20, 2020

I am writing a title for a research paper, which presents a new calculation method (calculator) for identifying patients comorbidity status. This method allows calculating comorbidity statuses for all patients in data at once (no need for one-by-one calculations). Basically, insert your data and this will add comorbidity statuses for all patients.

How to write the "whole-dataset" characteristic in English?

The term Data-corpus has come into use in the last 20 or 30 years (this is apparent in google ngram). It extends the following meaning by applying corpus to data in general rather than data on written or spoken material.

Corpus = “ a collection of written or spoken material stored on a computer and used to find out how language is used”

"Parallel" is the computing term. The results are being calculated "in parallel".

There is nothing wrong with "whole-dataset" It baffles me that people writing papers use the most abstruse words they can find. Is this supposed to impress their readers? All it does is to hide their work in a morass of other incomprehensible vocabulation. (intentional irony)

My suggestion

I might add "efficient" because that is what makes the difference when computing.


P.S. Just checking. Do you mean "patient's" or "patients'". If the former, then I think you are definitive onto something very useful.
