Supertask
In philosophy a supertask is a task occurring within a finite interval of time involving infinitely many steps (subtasks). A hypertask is a special type of supertask the number of whose subtasks is uncountable. The term supertask was coined by philosopher James F. Thomson (and the term hypertask by Clarke and Read in their identically named paper).
