Is it true of false that object oriented programs are executed much faster than conventional programs?

False. OO programs are usually slightly bigger and slower than 'standard' programs.

The use of Object Oriented Programming is used primarily to: * Make programs easier to read * Modify programs faster * Create modular programs


Do compiled programs usually run faster because they are already in machine code?

No it is because compiled programs are scared so they run like stink. Plus, uncompiled programs, ie. source programs, do not run at all... neither slowly nor fast.

Why are modern operating systems designed to implement multiprocessing?

Multiprocessing is based on the fact that computers work much faster than humans. While you type a sentence on your word processor, the computer is doing nothing, waiting for you to hit the 'save' key, or the spellchecker. Because many people want to do as many things at the same time as possible, modern operating systems are designed to be able to have several programs working at the same time. Thus, while a person is surfing the Web, their email program is checking for new mail. Macintosh was the first multitasking operating system for home computers, followed shortly by Windows. Every window that is open in Windows is a separate application as far as the central processer is concerned, and each one is given a certain amount of processer time to perform whatever processing is needed. Until recently, the processers in home computers were not fast enough to be able to multitask without a noticable slowing down of the applications. Playing a CD while accessing the hard drive resulted in choppy audio, and slow refresh times on the moniter. However, new proccesers are so fast that many different applications have to be active before any noticable slowdown occurs.
