Abstract
Methods, computer systems, and computer program products for calculating a remainder by division of a sequence of bytes interpreted as a first number by a second number are provided. A first subset of bytes is read, and an associated first remainder by division is calculated and stored in the memory location from which the subset was read. A second subset of bytes is read, and an associated second remainder by division is calculated with a second processor. The calculating of the second remainder by division may occur at least partially during the calculating of the first remainder by division. A third and fourth subset of bytes is read and associated remainders are calculated.
