Message-ID: <16185@sri-arpa.UUCP> Date: Wed, 18-Jan-84 14:05:26 EST Article-I.D.: sri-arpa.16185 Posted: Wed Jan 18 14:05:26 1984 Date-Received: Thu, 2-Feb-84 04:41:34 EST Lines: 10 From: Rene BachWhat are the evidences that the brain is a parallel processor? My own introspection seem to indicate that mine is doing time-sharing. That is I can follow only one idea at a time, but with a lot of switching between reasoning paths (often more non directed than controlled switching). Have different people different processors ? Or is the brain able to function in more than one way (parallel, serial, time-sharing) ?? Rene (bach@sumex)
