What else can I help you with?
When a user runs two or more programs at the same time on a computer with one central processor the process is referred to as what?
parallel processing
What is the function of processor on motherboard?
function of the processor is to process data
Which is correct processer or processor when speaking of a person who is doing a process?
processor
What technique that allows a single processor to simultaneously process multiple instructions?
Superscalar Page 262 in Operating Sysetm Book
What is the advantage of the parallel computer over a serial computer?
Parallel computing is when you do a lot of different things at once, a graphics card is a parallel processor. The main CPU is a serial processor, it does one thing, but does it really fast, then switches to another. Video editing works better on a parallel processor, for you can encode different frames all at the same time, instead of working on one, then moving on to the next.
What is parallel processing or processor?
Parallel processing is a processing method that uses multiple processors simultaneously to execute a single program or task Processor is a electronic component on a computer's motherboard that interprets and carries out the basic instructions that operate the computer
What is the processing of more than one thread at a time in a multicore processor called?
Parallel
Is also called the processor?
The CPU is also known as the processor. A processor is the major factor to consider in how fast a computer can process data.
What does it mean when the Task Manager indicates that 'System Idle Process' is stuck?
It is actually telling you the percent of the processor that is being used up.
What technology allows each logical processor within the processor package to handle an individual thread in parallel with other threads being handled by other processors within the package?
Intel has HyperThreading, and AMD uses HyperTransport, so the logical processor can run threads in parallel with other processors in the chipset. (see A+ 220-701).
What do you call the person who serves a summons?
process server process server
Explain one limitation of a 16-bit processor to a 64-bit processor?
One limitation of a 16 bit processor, compared to a 64 bit processor, is computing speed. A 16 bit process can process 2 bytes (8 bits = 1 byte) of information per clock cycle. While a 64 bit processor can process 8 bytes of information per clock cycle, making the 64 bit processor four times faster than a 16 bit processor.
