Trace theory explains how computer hardware and software process commands simultaneously, with an infinite number of possible patterns and relationships. Concurrent computing examines processing activity and dependency graphs show which processes use the same resources. Parallel processes are mathematically equal and represented in binary language.
Trace theory refers to how computer hardware and software process commands simultaneously. It is sometimes referred to as concurrent computing and can be compared to the idea of parallel computing. The main idea behind concurrent computation is that several processes use the same resource and depend on each other. Fundamental to tracking theory is the idea that there are an infinite number of possible patterns and relationships that processes can form.
Most computer hardware and programming languages are designed around trace theory. Concurrent computing examines what is being processed and how the processing activity occurs. While concurrent processes using the same resources are usually independent of each other, they can also interact. The idea of interdependent processes forms the core of concurrent computing and dependency graphs.
While each computing process may occur separately, dependency graphs show which processes might be using the same hardware or software. In these graphs and calculations, the dependent factor may be labeled with the letter “C” or “D”. Dependency graphs illustrate that if two processes use a certain factor, other processes that contain identical identifiers will also depend on the same factor.
Because trace theory attempts to explain how various computational processes and commands occur, dependency graphs not only identify which resources are being used, but also the paths and routes that processes are taking. It is important to keep in mind that the theory states that there are only a certain number of dependencies or relationships that can occur with a factor. While the number of models in the concurrent computation is infinite, only a select number of processes will form the same dependency or use the same resource.
Trace theory illustrates that parallel processes are mathematically equal to each other. It’s similar to the idea of taking two parallel lines, drawing an intersecting line through them, and measuring the angles on the opposite side of each intersection point. Even though the parallel lines themselves do not intersect, they are identical to each other and have the same value. In the case of simultaneous computation, the intersection line would be equivalent to a dependency.
The language used to represent the various processes using the same dependencies is binary. For example, one process might be represented by the letters “AC” while a second process is represented by the letters “AB”. The binary value of “0” could be assigned to the process “AC” and the binary value of 1 would be assigned to the process labeled “AB”.
