<!--Please organize meanings with sub-bullets as applicable-->
* [[Reduction (complexity)]], a transformation of one problem into another problem
* [[Reduction (recursion theory)]], given sets A and B of natural numbers, is it possible to effectively convert a method for deciding membership in B into a method for deciding membership in A?
* [[Bit Rate Reduction]], an audio compression method
* [[Data reduction]], simplifying data in order to facilitate analysis
* [[Graph reduction]], an efficient version of non-strict evaluation
* [[L-reduction]], a transformation of optimization problems which keeps the approximability features
* [[Partial order reduction]], a technique for reducing the size of the state-space to be searched by a model checking algorithm
* [[Strength reduction]], a compiler optimization where a function of some systematically changing variable is calculated more efficiently by using previous values of the function
* [[Reduce (computer algebra system)]], a general-purpose computer algebra system geared towards applications in physics
* [[Reduce (higher-order function)]], in functional programming, a family of higher-order functions that process a data structure in some order and build up a return value
* [[Reduced instruction set computing]], a CPU design philosophy favoring an instruction set reduced in size and complexity of addressing, to simplify implementation, instruction level parallelism, and compiling
