Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Solution: (iii) is correct
Multi-processing is a process that allows the system to simultaneous processing of two or more programs with the help of multiple processors. The advantages of the multiprocessing system are: Increased throughput by increasing the number of processors, more work can be completed in a unit time. Cost Saving − Parallel system shares the memory, buses, peripherals etc. Multiprocessor system thus saves money as compared to multiple single systems.
