What problem is faced by multicore processors?
What problem is faced by multi-core processors running older software written for single-brain chips? Multi-core processors usually run older software by using only one core at a time.
Is a technique in which computers are designed with many microprocessors that work together simultaneously to solve problems?
Modern supercomputing is typically done via a technique called massively parallel. processing (computers designed with many microprocessors that work together, simultaneously, to solve problems).
Which of the following are among the three interrelated forces threatening to slow the progression of Moore's Law?
But the shrinking can't go on forever, and we're already starting to see three interrelated forces—size, heat, and power—threatening to slow down the Moore's Law gravy train.
Are the Supertiny on off switches in a chip that work collectively to calculate or store things in memory?
Transistors are the supertiny on-off switches in a chip that work collectively to calculate or store things in memory (a high-end microprocessor might include over two billion transistors).
