Question

4. Which one of the following types of computers uses the concept of parallel processing?
(a) Micro computer
(b) Mini computer
(C) Supercomputer
(d) Analog computer​

Answer 1

Computers that are designed for parallel processing are called parallel processors or parallel machines. Many parallel processors can also be described as supercomputers, a more general term applied to the class of computer systems that is most powerful at any given time.

Answer 2

The correct option is c) Supercomputer.

The supercomputer uses the concept of parallel processing.

The reasons are the following:-

• A supercomputer works very fast and can multitask performance.
• Parallel processing is used to perform many problem-solving tasks at the same time.
• Therefore, many parallel processors together form a supercomputer.
• Supercomputers are very powerful and impactful than a normal computer at any given point in time.
• Supercomputers are systems of computers that use parallel processing to process data to solve complex problems.
• Hence, the correct answer is c) Supercomputer.
