With a Microcontroller look at it serial would be better than parallel when you have very few I/O pins or when you want to reserve extra I/O pins for other purposes.
A cost-of-wire approach would prove that serial is better because the fewer wires would have a lower cost then that of parallel communication
Computer case airflow would also indicate that serial can be better. With multiple harddrives in a computer sata cables will not disrupt the airflow as much as their much larger PATA flat cable counterparts. Although depending on where components are located and what type of cooling is used would be factors for this argument.
Serial data byte transfers move the data one bit at a time; parallel data byte transfers move all the data bits at the same time.
SCSI uses a parellel communication chain and SAS uses serial Point to Point communication
serial buses take up much less space seeing as though they only need 2 lines (send & return)
Serial ScheduleNon-Serial ScheduleA serial schedule is a sequence of operation by a set of concurrent transaction that preserves the order of operations in each of the individual transactions.A non-serial schedule is a schedule where the operations of a group of concurrent transactions are interleaved.Transactions are performed in serial order.Transactions are performed in non-serial order, but result should be same as serial.No interference between transactionsConcurrency problem can arise here.It does not matter which transaction is executed first, as long as every transaction is executed in its entirely from the beginning to end.The problem we have seen earlier lost update, uncommitted data, inconsistent analysis is arise if scheduling is not proper.A serial schedule gives the benefits of concurrent execution without any problemIn this schedule there is no any benefit of concurrent execution.Serial schedule that does interleaved the actions of different transactions.Where non-serial schedule has no only fix actions of any transaction.EXAMPLE:If some transaction T is long, the other transaction must wait for T to complete all its operations.EXAMPLE:In this schedule the execution of other transaction goes on without waiting the completion of T.If we consider transaction to be independent serial schedule is correct based on (property ACID) above assumption is valid.The objective behind serializability is to find the non-serial schedule that allows transactions to execute concurrently without interfering one another.

Some key differences between a Serial and Parallel Adder are that a Serial Adder is slower, a Parallel adder is a combinational circuit and the time required for addition depends on the number of bits in a Serial, but not a Parallel. A Serial Adder is a sequential circuit while a Parallel is a combinational circuit.
series and parallel are different types of circuits that a robot can contain
A Parallel bus has a relatively large number of wires bundled together that enable data to be transferred in parallel. This increases the throughput, or rate of data transfer, between the peripheral and the computer. A Serial bus can be defined as a transmission path over which the participants transmit their data serially, sequentially in time, and using a common medium. In the case of serial transmission, only a single communication link for transferring data from any given end to another one. In the case of parallel transmission, we use multiple numbers of parallel links for the simultaneous transmission of all the data bits in the network.
As an example of serial data transfer using the shift register approach, a set of four shifts triggered by clock pulses places the contents of the X-register into the Y-register. Since four clock cycles are needed, it is much slower than parallel transfer, but is simpler and cheaper. The illustration below shows the parallel transfer of 8 bits of data from the X Register to the Y Register upon application of an enabling transfer pulse. Clearly, parallel data transfer is faster than serial data transfer, but serial transfer has the advantages of requiring less hardware. These registers are made up of D flip-flops, which can serve as memory locations. The information in the X Register is intact after the transfer to the Y Register, so this process shows a possible scenario for accessing digital information stored in memory.
A serial hard drive is the same as a SATA hard drive. SATA is Serial ATA, and PATA is Parallel ATA.
give the difference between serial port and parallel port
one bit at a time vs. a group of several bits at a time.
1.serial adder add bits serially but parallel adder add bits at the same time . 2.serial adder depends on previous outputs but parallel adder does not depends on previous outputs . 3.parallel adder takes less time to execute compared to serial adder.
Serial printers are connected via the serial (COM) port of the computer. "Non-serial" printers are connected through another interface, such as the parallel port, USB, ADB. FireWire, etc...
