English term or phrase: parallel
The two performance objectives of the latter two system categories (volume cooling and surface cooling) are not found in any other NFPA standard, although some parallel could be made to exposure protection systems.

What does "parallel" of "some parallel could be made" mean? This is about the arrangement? I really have no idea so it could be really helpful if you give me any idea that you can guess. Thank you in advance.
