Answer:
A process having the same activity being performed by two or more resources simultaneously is said to have a parallel type of structure.
Explanation:
In computing, a process is the occurrence of a computer program that is being executed by one or several threads. It contains the program code and its activity.
A process may be made up of multiple threads of execution that carry out instructions concurrently, this is dependent on the operating system.
Programs consist of series of instructions for processors. A single processor can run only one instruction at a time. A program might need some resource, such as an input device, which has a large delay, or a program might start some slow operation, such as sending output to a printer. This would lead to processor being "idle".
In order to keep the processor busy at all times, the execution of such a program is stopped and the operating system switches the processor to run another program. To the user, it will appear that the programs run at the same time , therefore the term "parallel" applies.
Thus, a process having the same activity being performed by two or more resources simultaneously is said to have a parallel type of structure.
