nondeterminism

from The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (8 July 2008)
nondeterminism

   <algorithm> A property of a computation which may have more
   than one result.

   One way to implement a nondeterministic {algorithm} is using
   {backtracking}, another is to explore (all) possible solutions
   in parallel.
