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 is the name of the Intel technology that allows a processor to handle multiple theads at the same time?
Hyper-Threading
What is the name of intel technology that allows a processor to handle multiple threads at the same time?
Hyper-Threading Technology (HT Technology) is the brand under which Intel markets a generation of processors that can increase efficiency by improving multi-task processing, and are ideal in multi-threaded environments.
What allows processors to handle multiple threads?
If you are referring to Intel then it is Hyper-Threading
How many threads can be executed on an Intel Core 2 Duo processor simultaneously?
OK. How about an INTELLIGENT answer???? Would be nice, right? First, the difference between hardware and software threads. A hardware thread refers to a physical processor's ability to run a software thread. A software thread is part of your code that you execute in a thread. That is to say, if a processor can handle two hardware threads, that means the processor can simultaneously run up to two software threads at a time. Hardware threads means physical resources. Software threads are created by your program. Regardless of how many software threads your program defines, the processor that provides two hardware threads can only execute two of them concurrently. Now, I am having big problems finding out how many hardware threads a single processor can run. In graduate school, all of the processors we modeled provided two hardware threads. If this is always true, then the Core 2 Duo sounds like it provides 4 hardware threads. Your program can create pretty much any number of software threads, but at any given time there should be no more than 4 on the chip itself. I will see if I can ask someone from the university to get a good answer and will modify my answer if I find anything out. Either way, my answer completely trumps the one that was previously posted here.
How does core help in processing?
Core, as in the cores in a computer processor? They don't help in processing, they ARE the processing. Cores can refer to different things if you take the definitions from different vendors (AMD and Intel consider the cores of their processors to be two different things). For simplicity sake, we'll go with integer cores. These handle the floating point calculations, memory reservations, and data flow required to make a computer...compute More cores can mean more processing. There are limitations to anything though, and most programs typically aren't designed to handle more than four threads at once. Again, for simplicity, lets consider a thread a line of instructions sent to a single core. 4 threads = 4 cores. (Intel can have up to 12 threads on their six-core processor via HT technology) Having more cores typically lowers the performance-per-core and power efficiency of a processor, meaning that any program that uses fewer threads will run poorly on a multi-core processor.
Will a processor 80532 handle 64 bits?
Yes, a processor 80532 will handle and has the ability to run 64-bits. A processor 80532 is considered to be a Pentium 4 processor.
Why computer categorized?
Computers categorize information in order to handle it quicker. Placing similar files in the same destination allows the processor to retrieve it quickly.
Who invented the hyper threading technology?
Hyper-Threading Technology is a small program in the BIOS which enables the processor to run at higher speeds than usual, or to even make the computer think it has more cores than it should. Make sure firstly that your processor is capable of running Hyper-Threading Technology otherwise the motherboard will run faster than the processor can handle, causing crashes and CPU problems
Is it better to have a 1.5 GHz dual core processor or a 3.0 GHz?
the 1.5 dual core can handle 2 threads at the same time and 3.0 single core can only handle 1 thread both of them switch threads rapidly if you have CPU-z you will find that the only difference in number of threads (the number of cores in single core is 2) short answer : the dual core is faster in multitasks the single core is faster in single task (like most of games)
How many processors can a CPU have?
A CPU is a Processor. (central processing unit or microprocessor), a CPU alias Processor can have multiple Cores which are basically processors but they are referred to as Cores.
How many treads can a quad-core processor handle at once?
The number of treads a quad-core processor can handle depends on the processor and model. Some are designed to handle two treads per core, which would give you eight total, but others can only handle one per core, which one be four.
