Question

which of the following is a computing technique in which multiple processors each contribute one part of an overall computation?
synchronous processing
task - level parallelism
data - level parallelism
simd (single instructions, multiple data)
rotation delay

Explanation:

• Synchronous processing: Refers to processes that occur one after another in a coordinated manner, not about multiple processors contributing parts of a computation.
• Task - level parallelism: Involves multiple processors working on different tasks (parts of an overall computation).
• Data - level parallelism: Focuses on processing multiple data elements with the same operation, not on different parts of a computation.
• SIMD (single instructions, multiple data): Applies the same instruction to multiple data elements, not about splitting a computation into parts.
• Rotation delay: Related to disk access, not a computing technique for splitting computations.

Answer:

Task - level parallelism
