q addition of array elements using two processorsin this example we have to find sum of all elements of an array a of size n we will divide n
q illustrate programming based on message passingsince we know programming model based on message passing employs high level programming languages
q what are the types of parallel programmingthere are various parallel programming models in general use a few of them are data parallel
conventionally software has been written for serial computation in that programs are written for computers which have a single central processing
q explain the properties of hypercubeproperties of hypercube hypercube is both edge and node symmetric the labels of any two neighbouring nodes vary
q programming languages array operationsin programming languages array operations are written in compact form which frequently makes programs more
speedupfirst we take the speedup factor which is we see how much speed up performance we achieve by pipelining first we take ideal case for measuring

arithmetic pipelinesthe technique of pipelining can be applied to various complex and low arithmetic operations to speed up processing time pipelines
instruction buffersfor taking the complete advantage of pipelining pipelines must be filled continuously so instruction fetch rate must be matched
bernstein conditions for detection of parallelismfor execution of a number of instructions or a block of instructions in parallel it must be made
resource dependencethe parallelism between instructions can also be affected because of the shared resources if two instructions are occupying the
control dependencesegments or instructions in a program can include control structures so dependency among statements is able to be in control
data dependencyit indicates to the situation in which two or more instructions share same data the instructions in a program are able to be arranged
