big advantage of parallel transmission is the factor of speed. All else being equal, parallel transmission can increase the transfer speed by a factor of n over a serial transmission. But there is also a very significant disadvantage of parallel transmission. And that is the factor of cost. It can be proved from the fact that the parallel transmission requires 'n'

∙ 9y agoThe advantages of Parallel Transmission are, as the name implies , the transmission of number of bits will take only one cycle as all the data bits will be transmitted parallel. Secondly, because the data is transmitted in one clock cycle, the frequency can be kept low so that the speed of operation is not affected.

Which communication is faster in parallle and serial?
Parallel data transmission is faster compared to serial data transmission. The speed of a parallel link is equal to the number of bits sent multiplied by the bit rate of each individual path.
What is meant by serial and parallel transmission?
A serial port only allows a single bit of data through at a time. A parallel port allows multiple bits of data through at a time.
As we know parallel transmission is faster then serial then why serial is replacing parallel?
There is a greater risk of errors with parallel transmission because especially over longer distances, the bits may arrive at the destination at different times and therefore corrupting the data. Because serial transmission sends each bit one at a time, they always are received in order. Speed of transmission is not always the driving priority, if the information cannot be reliably transferred to the destination all the speed in the universe is useless.
Does the parallel transmission needs multiple communication lines?
Yes. 'Serial' transmission means all bits travel the same channel, one at a time. 'Parallel' transmission means several bits travel several channels, at the same time.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the serial dilution agar plate procedure?
Both force you to read your lab manual.
What is difference between a parallel bus and a serial bus?
A Parallel bus has a relatively large number of wires bundled together that enable data to be transferred in parallel. This increases the throughput, or rate of data transfer, between the peripheral and the computer. A Serial bus can be defined as a transmission path over which the participants transmit their data serially, sequentially in time, and using a common medium. In the case of serial transmission, only a single communication link for transferring data from any given end to another one. In the case of parallel transmission, we use multiple numbers of parallel links for the simultaneous transmission of all the data bits in the network.
What is a Zero Slot LAN and Its Advantages Disadvantages?
A zero-slot LAN is a local-area network (LAN) that uses existing serial and/or parallel communication ports on the computers in the network instead of requiring network interface cards (NICs) that would occupy an expansion slot. Advantages It leads to transmitting between computers over a serial or parallel port, thus freeing up an expansion slot normally used by LAN cards (NICs). Disadvantages Zero-slot LANs are typically slower than LANS that use NICs and are limited to two or three network nodes.
What is the difference between serial and parallel data transmission?
one bit at a time vs. a group of several bits at a time.
