👉 Processor computing, often referred to as "CPU" or "processor," is the core computational unit within a computer system responsible for executing instructions and performing calculations. It acts as the brain of the computer, managing tasks such as arithmetic operations, logical reasoning, data transfer between components, and controlling the flow of data within the system. Modern processors are highly complex, containing millions of transistors that enable them to handle multiple tasks simultaneously through parallel processing. They typically consist of several cores, each capable of executing instructions independently, which significantly boosts performance and efficiency. These processors are designed to support various types of workloads, from running operating systems and applications to handling graphics rendering and machine learning tasks.
