In this paper, we study the lattice linearity of multiplication and modulo operations. We demonstrate that these operations are lattice linear and the parallel processing algorithms that we study for both these operations are able to exploit the lattice linearity of their respective problems. This implies that these algorithms can be implemented in asynchronous environments, where the nodes are allowed to read old information from each other. These algorithms also exhibit snap-stabilizing properties, i.e., starting from an arbitrary state, the sequence of state transitions made by the system strictly follows its specification.
