You are building a string of lights using several bulbs how is the brightness of the lights related to whether you connect the bulbs in series or in parallel?

Overall brightness (not individual bulbs' brightness) will increase when we connect them in parallel & it will decrease when we connect them in series.

What does PBB stand for related to the programming product?
PBB is an Intel abbreviation for Parallel Building Blocks.
Which circuit would have the brightest light?
If you connect bulbs in parallel across a given voltage supply (eg household mains supply) then they will all draw their rated current and will glow at their rated brightness. If you connect the same bulbs in series then they will glow very much less brightly. This is because the resistance of a bulb's element is also related to the power dissipated in the element. A bulb's element is rated for operation at a particular voltage. You can certainly connect two 6v motorcycle bulbs in series, and connect them to a car battery at 12v, and the two bulbs will be just as bright as they were when individually operated from the motorcycle 6v batttery. However if you connect two 6v bulbs in parallel and then wire them to a 12v car battery they will only glow brighter for a fraction of a second and then ... pop. You will have overheated the elements beyond their designed power handling capability.

What types of certifications does ASHRAE offer?
There are a number of different certifications that are offered by ASHRAE. Most of the certifications are building related, as they offer Building Energy Assessment Professional certification, Building Energy Modeling Professional certification and High Performance Building Design certification.
What are brightness and contrast in image processing?
Brightness and contrast represent a way to adjust an image. They come from the display technology, being common controls in all monitors. The color brightness/contrast are similar to the grayscale counterparts, in most cases being applied to all channels (even if from the physical point of view this is wrong - a transformation into HSI with adjustment of the I component would be correct -. For a grayscale image, brightness represents an image adjustment where a constant value is added to all pixel values. The contrast adjustament is a multiplication of the pixel values with a constant. Most of the image processing programs use a different scale, for example from 0 to 10. If you wish to experiment with it, you can do it photoshop, gimp. To apply a brightness/contrast correction to a bunch of images is easier with an image converter like AZImage - see related link.

How is the brightness of the lightness of the lights related to whether you connect the bulbs in series or in parellel?
For a lamp to operate at its rated power, it must be subjected to its rated voltage. Provided this is the case, then it doesn't matter whether lamps are connected in series or in parallel. For example, ten identical lamps, each rated at 12 V, will operate normally if connected in series across a 120-V supply (this is because they will each be subjected to a voltage drop of 12 V). They will also function normally if they are connected in parallel across a 12-V supply.
