Human Resource (HR) Interview Question:

What is pipelining?

Submitted by: Administrator

A technique used in advanced microprocessors where the microprocessor begins executing a second instruction before the first has been completed. That is, several instructions are in the pipeline simultaneously, each at a different processing stage.

Pipeline is a device within the CPU that enables it to fetch (read) instructions in advance of executing them - so that when an instruction is completed, the next one is ready to execute.
