Dont use serial computers....
They killllll :O
parrelell computers are lame as well
its the same image on the screen the whole time
now to ur architecture question
figure it out urself.....
THERE 200 YEARS OLDER
Some differences between human beings and computers are:Brains are analogue; computers are digitalComputers access information in memory by polling a memory address, brains search memories using cuesThe brain is a massively parallel machine; computers are modular and serialProcessing speed is not fixed in the brain; there is no system clockShort-term memory is not like RAMComputers are hardware that runs software, there is no "mind software" running on brainsSynapses are far more complex (electrochemical) than computer logic gates (electrical)Computers use processors and memory for different functions, there is no such distinction in the brainComputers are designed, built and are of fixed architecture, the brain is a self-organizing systemComputers have no body, brains do
Diving into the intricate landscape of computer architectures, both clustered and multicomputer designs emerge as pivotal configurations within centralized systems. A clustered architecture consists of multiple computers or servers, known as nodes, working together to perform tasks as if they were a single entity. This setup prioritizes fault tolerance; if one node fails, others can take over its tasks. On the other hand, multicomputer architecture involves multiple autonomous computers interacting with each other over a network to execute parallel computations. Each computer operates independently with its local memory, sharing no global memory with its counterparts. While both systems involve multiple computers working collectively, the primary distinction lies in their intent and design. Clustered systems aim for high availability and reliability, ensuring continuous operation, while multicomputer systems focus on harnessing computational power from several computers to process tasks concurrently. Deciphering the nuances of each can offer a clearer perspective on their applicability in different scenarios.
a computer is a data processing device ... the internet is a bunch of computers that are connected to each other
Hybrid computers use alot less energy than super computers but do not run as well. usally hybrid computers are used as servers for they are capable of many things but are always running therefor more efficent
parallel operating system is tha sharing of data between two computers....... Distributing system is the sharing of data among different computers....

concurrent processing deals with N-client single server whereas parallel supports N-client N-server
One is parallel and one is not
I think there is not much major difference between IT and Computers. IT includes Networking, Database, web and programming languages etc. where as in CS mainly concentrate on Programming languages and Architecture and design also on networking and other subjects but not in depth.
Network architecture refers to the design and structure of a network, including components, protocols, and technologies used for communication. Network topology, on the other hand, refers to the physical or logical layout of devices and how they are connected in a network, such as bus, star, ring, or mesh. In essence, network architecture defines how components work together, while network topology defines how components are arranged.
Nothing they are the same
Distributed processing involves multiple interconnected systems working together to complete a task, with each system performing a different part of the task. Parallel processing, on the other hand, involves breaking down a task into smaller sub-tasks and executing them simultaneously using multiple processors within the same system. In distributed processing, systems may be geographically dispersed, while parallel processing occurs within a single system.
The primary difference is that a USB interface type printer requires the computer to have a USB port (as all modern computers do) whereas a parallel interface type printer requires the computer to have a parallel (LPT) port (which many modern computers do not have.) There are USB-to-parallel converters however which plug into USB and allow the use of parallel printers. Additionally, many legacy applications only have support for parallel printers, in these cases, in order to use a USB printer it may be necessary to create a virtual parallel port and map the USB printer to it.
The difference between a perpendicular line and a parallel line is that a perpendicular line crosses or joins, while a parallel line doesn't touch at all.
size
Contrast is the difference between the "empties" and the "fulls".
