From the computer, we increasingly perform different tasks simultaneously
(listening to music while writing a report, receiving files by email and
downloading videos), which involve executing commands, and sending and
receiving data. Over time, computer performance can suffer if CPU usage is not
optimized. But what is a CPU? Content: Introduction to the Importance of […]
