Questions and Answers

What is the von Neumann model used for in traditional sequential computers?

  • Abstracting a computer system
  • Interconnecting processors for parallel computing
  • Performing calculations in the Arithmetic Logical Unit
  • Storing data and programs in memory (correct)

    • In object-oriented programming, how do programmers think of a program?

  • As a sequence of stateless function evaluations
  • As different ways processors can be interconnected
  • As sets of concurrent processes acting upon shared data structures
  • As a collection of interacting objects (correct)

    • What do specialized programming languages for parallel/concurrent computing rely on?
