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.
What else can I help you with?
Do mainframe computers ordinarily use continuous form paper for laser printers?
true
What is mainframe computer short answer?
A mainframe computer is a big computer. You probably wrote your question using a desk top or lap top computer. A computer larger than that is a mini computer. There are computers larger than that called mainframes. Mainframe computers have the power of thousands of desktops. A bank would have one to keep track of customers' accounts, loans, and other business. They would use a second one for backup.
Are most computers consisting of many computers and are usually connected by a networking devices such as a hub switch or access point?
Most computers today consist of many processors. Most business computers are connected via hub/switch/access point. Most broadband home users are connected to an access point, only fraction of current home computers use a hub/switch.
What type of computer do the bank use to store all their customer details?
Banks, large corporations and government departments, all of whom have large scale processing requirements, would use mainframe computers for a lot of their data.
How many types of multiprocessing?
Multi processing is the use of two or more central processing units within a single computer system.There are three types of Multi processing units which includes processor symmetry, instruction and data streams and processor coupling.
Name 3 simularities between mainframe computers and personal computers?
they box use processors they both both use cooling systems to prevent over heating they both have a OS
What topology did Mainframe computers first use?
Mainframe computers first used star topology
What do you call computers that are connected to a network that use a mainframe or a supercomputer as a server?
answer: node
Do The earliest mainframe used the binary language?
All computers use binary.
What is windows sever?
windows server is a bunch of computers connected to one computer. they basically use the main computers mainframe
Describe a typical use for mainframe computers?
Business Man, companies, bank, marketing
Do mainframe computers ordinarily use continuous form paper for laser printers?
true
What are the disadvantages of embedded computers?
you are stupid... they have less effective use other than mainframe computer.
What is the historical rate of demise of mainframe computers?
A mainframe computer is a large computer system that use to be manufactured. The historic demise of the mainframe computer began in the late 1980s when manufactures began making smaller models.
What is the purpose of network management?
Network management is a system that companies use to make sure all computers work together. I believe each computer is connected to one mainframe, so the network allows all the computers to use the same mainframe at the same time.
What are the four classification of computers?
MAINFRAME COMPUTERMINI-COMPUTERMICRO-COMPUTERSUPER-COMPUTERThere are many computers which are different from each other in various aspects. Classification of computers are given below.(1) Micro computers: These computers use a microprocessor chip and this chip is used instead of CPU means that this microprocessor chip works as a CPU.These computers are also called personal computers. Two major types of these computers are laptop or Desktop computers. Only one user uses these computers at time that's why they are also known as personal computers.(2) Mini Computers: These are powerful computer. These computers come into existence in 1960s at that time mainframe computer was very costly. Mini computers were available in cheap prices, so users start using it.(3) Mainframe Computer: It as a very powerful and large computer. You can get idea of its power as it can handle processing of many users at a time.Terminals are used to connect a user to this computer and users submit there task through mainframe. Terminal is a device which has keyboard and a screen. By using terminal users put inputs into the computer and get the output through screen.(4) Super Computers: As the name "super computer" specifies that these are most powerful computers even than mainframe. Actually, when we optimize a mainframe computer then we get super computer.(5) Microprocessor: You will find these computers everywhere. Microprocessor chips are used in many devices as I-pod, DVD, headphone etc.
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.
