Literary notes about Concurrent (AI summary)
The term "concurrent" is employed in literature to denote occurrences or entities that exist, operate, or develop simultaneously. For instance, it is used to express the natural, simultaneous voice or influence of different authorities in a legal or historical context [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]. In other writings, it characterizes events or developments that unfold together over time or in parallel—such as the rise of a cultural era alongside personal milestones [7, 8] or the simultaneous operation of melodic lines in music [9, 10]. The word also conveys the concept of multiple causes or principles acting side by side, as seen in discussions on causality and philosophical arguments [11, 12, 13], as well as in metaphorical portrayals of converging forces or sentiments [14, 15].
