ITPEC IP April 2022 Question 13
ITPEC IP April 2022 — Question 13 of 100
A GPU is the processor suited to high-volume image processing and AI calculations. A graphics processing unit contains many processing units designed to execute similar arithmetic operations on large sets of data in parallel. That architecture accelerates rendering and also matrix and vector computations frequently used by machine-learning systems.
Answer (c)
Why not others:
- CPU is a general-purpose processor optimized for varied sequential and control-heavy tasks
- DSP specializes in signal-processing operations but is not the intended massively parallel image and AI processor here
- FPU performs floating-point arithmetic and is usually a functional unit within a processor rather than the described standalone parallel accelerator
Key rule: A GPU's many parallel execution units make it effective for graphics and data-parallel AI workloads.
