What are the Disadvantages of parallel computing?

Answer 1

the main disadvantages of parallel computing is in this process want highly processors for speed processing.

Answer 2

Some disadvantages of parallel computing include increased complexity in programming and debugging due to the need for coordinating multiple processes, potential for race conditions and deadlocks which can impact performance and reliability, and the cost of implementing and maintaining parallel computing systems which can be higher compared to traditional serial systems. Additionally, not all algorithms are easily parallelizable, limiting the potential benefits of parallel computing in certain applications.

Answer 3

Oh, dude, like, disadvantages of parallel computing? Well, for starters, coordinating all those tasks can be a real headache. And don't even get me started on the potential for bugs and errors multiplying like bunnies. Plus, trying to manage all those processors? It's like herding cats, man.

Answer 4

They typically take up A LOT of space.

Supercomputers have the following disadvantages:

- Generate a lot of heat often require water cooling in addition to an A/C system

- High power requirements which cost at minimum $400 per hour or $3.5 million per year as an example

- The initial purchase can be at minimum $100,000

- Large space requirements

Answer 5

The main Disadvantage of parallel connection is that it uses more hardware resources for example if you want to communicate between two system using parallel connection than it requires more numbers of connection between those two systems.It requires redundant hardware.

Answer 6

Using parallel computing will save time and money, solve large or very complex problems with more ease. It even allows you do do more than one thing at a time which increases your productivity.

Answer 7

They are very expensive to buy(150-500 million dollars) and to use($1,000 per hour)
