| Abstract: | The implementation of mathematical algorithms plays a fundamental role in computational efficiency. Sequential programming, which processes instructions in a linear manner, often struggles with large data volumes due to its inherent limitations. In contrast, parallel programming distributes tasks across multiple cores, significantly reducing processing times and improving overall performance. This paper presents a comparative analysis of both approaches and their relevance in Systems Engineering, where computational optimization is critical. To this end, we implement and evaluate the Sobel algorithm—commonly used for edge detection in images—in both sequential and parallel modes. The implementation is carried out in Python, leveraging the NumPy, OpenCV, and Multiprocessing libraries. This study analyzes the conditions under which parallelization enhances performance and identifies scenarios where process overhead may negate its benefits, thus establishing fundamental criteria for applying these techniques to solve mathematical problems in engineering.
