Detailed explanation-1: -Parallel processing has single execution flow. Explanation: The statement is false. Sequential programming specifically has single execution flow.
Detailed explanation-2: -Practically, when a program is executed in parallel, the hypothesis that the parallel program will run faster is not always satisfied. If the main goal of parallelizing a serial program is to obtain a faster run then the main criterion to be considered is the speedup gained from parallelization.
Detailed explanation-3: -Terms in this set (25) Which of the following is true of parallel processing? A. In parallel processing, a large number of heterogeneous products pass through an identical set of processes.
Detailed explanation-4: -The speedup of a parallel solution is measured in the time it took to complete the task sequentially divided by the time it took to complete the task when done in parallel.
