👉 Indirect computing refers to the process where a central computing unit, often referred to as the master or controller, manages and coordinates the activities of multiple peripheral devices or computing nodes without direct interaction with each of them. This is typically achieved through a communication network, where the master sends instructions or data to the peripherals, which then execute these tasks independently. The master maintains an overview of the system's state and can optimize resource allocation, manage tasks, and handle errors without needing to know the specific details of each peripheral's operation. This abstraction simplifies system management and enhances efficiency by decoupling the central control from the distributed components, allowing for scalable and flexible computing environments.
