A software company used to run an algorithm sequentially on one server. As more users start using their app, the company decided
to rewrite the program to be parallel. It is now run on four separate servers instead of one Thanks to the use of a parallel algorithm, the same process that used to take 40 minutes to run now only requires 20 minutes. The company is considering purchasing additional computers to decrease the time the program runs even further. Which of the following best describes the impacts of running the parallel algorithm on an even larger number of computers. a. The algorithm will likely require more time since it is now being run sequentially on more computers.
b. The algorithm will likely require the same amount of time to run because it is processing the same amount of data.
c. The algorithm will likely require less time to run though the improvements in efficiency will not be as significant as before.
d. The algorithm is unlikely to still run since parallel algorithms are not designed to scale to additional computers
a. The algorithm will likely require more time since it is now being run sequentially on more computers.
Explanation:
Algorithm is a software which enables the users to solve complex problems with input of commands. The software runs the command inserted and then output is generate. The algorithms can be run parallel and sequentially on more computers.
Computer science is the study of problems, problem-solving, and the solutions that come out of the problem-solving process. Given a problem, a computer scientist's goal is to develop an algorithm, a step-by-step list of instructions for solving any instance of the problem that might arise. ... Algorithms are solutions.

A filter is a tool for removing undesirable parts. Eliminate solid from a fluid, for example. The filter may mean the filter action: it could be used as a verb. When the filter is mentioned, various branches of science and technology often refer to a certain type of device. Filtering tries to decide the data you need and the data you have to address the overload.
