False
10 points
QUESTION 4

how they use memory
how they use CPU
how many processors they use
10 points
QUESTION 5
which alternative parallel processing approach is NOT discussed in the book?
systolic processing
dataflow computing
genetic algorithm
neural networks

Answer 1

1) Highly pipelined is a feature of RISC, not CISC.

2) True

3) False. CISC systems can access memory with implicit load and store instructions.

4) Symmetric multiprocessors (SMP) and massively parallel processors (MPP) differ in how many processors they use.

5) Genetic algorithm is NOT discussed in the book as an alternative parallel processing approach.
