Placing an embedded microprocessor system into a product makes the product smart. It can then be programmed to do things that are too difficult or expensive using conventional technologies such as logic, or time switches, and so on. Link such a smart product to the internet and it can do even more. For example, products can be programmed to do self-diagnostic checks and to report back to the manufacturer. Not only does this provide the potential to collect data that can be used to improve products, it can also allow for the manufacturer to inform the user of potential problems, so that action can be taken. This opens up possibilities for improved customer service as well as new services. Basically, embedded microprocessors enable firms to compete on product and service innovation, by adding product and service features that customers value, but which would be largely impossible without this technology.
Computer processors are the "brains" of the computer. all the information goes in and out of it. It reads the code and decode it, essentialy doing everything we see the computer doing
they help find little details that may be hard to see with the naked eye
Mainframe computers are used for bigger and complex environment than mini computer, so many processors are used to increase the efficiency of data processing. It also provides another benifit i.e. a mainframe computer is able to continue to be in service with remaining processors in case one processor is failed.
They create technology products, especially mainboards, personal computers and computers for Industrial PCs. They also create processors and other computer components.
VACUUM Tubes were first used as Logical Components in firstmanufactured Computers. Then the Invention of Transistors changed the Computing Industry and now the miniature form of Transistors ranging in nanometers (for e.g. 65nm or 45nm based processors).
The computer was designed to solve math problems. It then evolved into what we have today. Before computers, the abacus was a popular tool for calculating, and was usually faster then the computer (in fact, people made money by betting on what would solve first: abacus or computer)

Are computers better data processors than humans
Contemporary computers mostly use either Intel or AMD processors. The Pentium brand of Intel processors is the most popular in the world.
Most computers now come with dual processors.
Apple uses various processors from Intel for their range of computers.

This is not possible. HP-UX only runs on IA-64 and PA-RISC processors. It is not compatible with the processors used in most home computers.

Most everyday office/home computers have one processor. However, more recent processors are coming with two, four, and soon even eight cores, or smaller processors in processors.
eMachines is a line of computers, not a specific computer. The product line used a variety of processors.
Multicore processors are needed to run the applications which need a higher processing speed.this is mostly used in computers as the programs running there need a greater speed.
