4 Questions
What is parallel processing?
A technique used to provide simultaneous data-processing tasks for increasing computational speed
How is parallel processing achieved?
By having multiple functional units that perform same or different operations simultaneously
What does parallel processing involve in terms of ALUs?
The system may have two or more ALUs to execute two or more instructions at the same time
In what way can parallel processing be implemented?
By distributing the data among multiple functional units
