Don't let their speed in Ghz fool you: each core in a multi-core processor is more powerful than a processor of the previous generation. The motivation for using processors at a lower clock rate and use them in parallel is to 1.) reduce heat and electrical requirements, and 2.) to facilitate better performance for apllications by creating more hardware thread

∙ 14y agoPerforming operations in parallel is often faster than performing them consecutively at a higher rate of speed. If operations can be broken down into parallel operations instead of one large multi-threaded one, you can use slower (and less power-hungry and hot-running) processors to accomplish the same job.

∙ 14y agoUse multiple processors in parallel to
- Save the time consumed in performing any task
- increase in speed
- increase in reliabiliy (if 1 processor fails system in not fallen down)
- faster throughput and hence less power consumption.

What is parallel computer?
Lots of processors all doing the same task simultaneously. For instance a graphics card will use massively parallel processing computing to render the display.
Where is parallel processing used?
Wherever it is needed for rapid data processing and programmers have coded correctly to use this feature of processors.
What is massivelly parallel computing?
Lots of processors all doing the same task simultaneously. For instance a graphics card will use massively parallel processing computing to render the display.
Why use many powerful processors working in parallel?
Don't let their speed in Ghz fool you: each core in a multi-core processor is more powerful than a processor of the previous generation. The motivation for using processors at a lower clock rate and use them in parallel is to 1.) reduce heat and electrical requirements, and 2.) to facilitate better performance for apllications by creating more hardware thread
When you plan to purchase a computer to use for Hyper-V up to how many processors can be in that computer?
You can have up to 16 processors that can run on a computer that use Hyper-V
How many processors can you get in a laptop?
its answer is one. Processor use is depend on the multitasking
Why you use a lot of small processor in super computer instead of a powerful processor?
Smaller processors are almost always cheaper, and use less electricity. Using a large number of processors in parallel also gives some redundancy, since a single processor node failing will not stop work from being performed.
Do mobile phones use cisc processors?
NO
What are some of the different processors used in todays?
Contemporary computers mostly use either Intel or AMD processors. The Pentium brand of Intel processors is the most popular in the world.
New trends in parallel processing systems?
Some new trends in parallel processing systems include the increasing use of heterogeneous systems combining CPUs and accelerators like GPUs, the adoption of specialized processors for specific workloads, and the development of frameworks and tools to simplify parallel programming such as Apache Spark and TensorFlow. Additionally, there is a growing emphasis on energy efficiency in parallel processing systems to address the challenges of power consumption and heat dissipation.
Why you use many processors in a mainframe computers?
Mainframe computers are used for bigger and complex environment than mini computer, so many processors are used to increase the efficiency of data processing. It also provides another benifit i.e. a mainframe computer is able to continue to be in service with remaining processors in case one processor is failed.
Does a battery operated toy contain a parallel circuit?
Yes, many toys which use batteries contain parallel and series circuits.
