Not if parallel sampling of happening stuffs is involved. All of your thousands of temperature sensors in your nuclear factory, all running the same code, should not wait for any of their neighbours. They should interrupt their supervisor if something interesting was detected, by setting a bit in some register, so the supervisor can serially check any interrupts. But even the supervisor could be multiple devices doing that concurrently. > though the program will take longer to run than necessary. Not if there is only 1 "processor", because then the overhead of interleaving processes will make the concurrent processing take longer. -- Groet, Ruud
