Before we can explain what a "task" is in an embedded system it is important to understand that most embedded systems use a single microcontroller or microprocessor. The microcontroller (MCU) can do only one operation at a time but is fast enough to handle thousands of these operations per second (or much more, depending on the MCU). The application developer decomposes the application into a series of tasks (also known as threads or processes). Each task is given control of system resources by the real-time operating system (or some other scheduler) for a period of time and then yields control to another task. These tasks must share the MCU with all other tasks so it is important that no single task dominates the system. The developer assigns a priority to each task. The scheduler (in the real-time operating system) gives control of the system to the highest priority task that is ready to run, preempting any lower priority task that is currently in control of the system.
On average merge sort is more efficient however insertion sort could potentially be faster. As a result it depends how close to reverse order the data is. If it is likely to be mostly sorted, insertion sort is faster, if not, merge sort is faster.
A multi programmer in computing refers to that person who cam perform more than one programming task during the same period of time. Multiprogramming is a rudimentary form of parallel processing in which several programs are run at the same time on a uniprocessor.
No. A subroutine (also known as a procedure or function) is best thought of as being a task. The executable (program) is the actual process. Every process has at least one thread of execution and each thread has its own local call stack. Thus multiple threads may concurrently execute the same task independently of any other threads within the same process. This is useful when we have a large or time-consuming task which can be broken down or divided up into smaller instances of the same task; each thread handles a small portion of the overall task and operates concurrently with all other instances of that task. Depending on how many CPU cores we have available, multiple threads of execution should complete the whole task quicker than a single thread would have. That is, if we divide the task into four, we could potentially complete the whole task in 1/4 of the time it would take with just one thread of execution.
The steel plow came about as the cost of steel fell and the need for more efficient farming came about. The main advantage of the steel plow is that you can plow more of a field in any given time. This makes food less labour intensive and cheaper.
The tool that is used to evaluate task overload is called a time study. Manufacturer's use this tool to make the employee's work more efficient. This tool also helps to identify safety hazards.
It probably means doing things in a time efficient manner, such as carrying an object in each hand and making half as many trips, or accomplishing more than one task at the same time so that overall time will be reduced.
We all agreed that this solution would prove to be an efficient strategy. (the word is used as an assurance that the task will be performed in the best possible manner with the least waste of time and effort)
Gas central heating is more efficient than electric.Open cast mining can be more efficient than deep mines.
our new air conditioner is much more efficient that our old one
s the ability of the operating system to perform more than one task at a time. Answer
All the answers are correct.A biological component of intelligence has to do with how efficient a brain is in processing information.The more complex the task involving reaction time, the stronger the correlation is with intelligence.There is a correlation between reaction time and intelligence. A+ all the answers are correct.
Organization by time is chronological. Proper time management and organization makes you more efficient.
postponement and more time to complete your task that the manager assigned.

called real time processing
A task can refer to a process or a part of a process.The processing time of a task is the actual amount of time in which the CPU was processing instructions for that task.
