Transistor is an tiny electronic device called electronic switch,which is building block of a processor. Processor is a data processing device consists of thousands or millions of transistors. Eg- Intel 8086 microprocessor has around 29000 transistors.
aray processor is a processor that performs computations on large arrays of data. It is of two types: (1) attached array processor. (2)SIMD array processor.
The output of an XSLT processor is a set of instructions that dictate how to display the XML data.
A processor.
Differences between scalar and superscalar processors generally boil down to quantity and speed. A scalar processor, considered to be the simplest of all processors, works on one or two computer data items at a given time. The superscalar processor works on multiple instructions and several groups of multiple data items at a time. Scalar and superscalar processors both function the same way in terms of how they manipulate data, but their difference lies in how many manipulations and data items they can work on in a given time. Superscalar processors can handle multiple instructions and data items, while the scalarprocessor simply cannot, therefore making the former a more powerful processor than the latter. Scalar and superscalar processors both have some similarities with vector processors. Like ascalar processor, a vector processor also executes a single instruction at a time, but instead of just manipulating one data item, its single instruction can access multiple data items. Similar with the superscalar processor, a vector processor has several redundant functional units that let it manipulate multiple data items, but it can only work on a single instruction at a time. In essence, a superscalar processor is a combination of a scalar processor and a vector processor.
Yes, a calculator is considered a data processor. Anything that can use or hold data is considered to be a data processor. So yes, a calculator is a data processor.
Internal Bus
Input in the sense that it helps process data/information around the system AFAP but output in the sense that the data/information is to the processor and they do the work from there.
Data run's through a processor CPU = Core Processing Unit but yes CPU is the same thing as a Processor or ''Data Processor''
A computer is known as a data processor because that's what it does. Process data (programs)
bits
function of the processor is to process data
Additional data and programs not being used by the processor are stored in
Hi, As we all know, each computer has a processor and each processor has some registers to store the data which are being processed by the processor. Sometimes processor needs to copy/move data from one register to another to make space for new data. This data transfer between registers is called register data transfer. I hope this will help. Thanks,

PDP stands for Programmed Data Processor. Therefore, it means Programmed Data Processor-8. :p
It all depends on the speed of the processor. For an example, my processor runs at a speed of around 3.3 GHz This means that it performs 3.3 billion processes a second.
