In which of the following architecture styles does a device receive input from connectors and generate transformed outputs?

  • A. N-tiered
  • B. Heterogeneous
  • C. Pipes and filters
  • D. Layered
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C 🗳️
In the pipes and filters architecture style, a device receives input from connectors and generates transformed outputs. A pipeline has a series of processing elements in which the output of each element works as an input of the next element. A little amount of buffering is provided between the two successive elements.

Selected Answer: C
The Pipes and Filters architecture style is particularly well-suited for processing streams of data in which each stage takes an input from the previous stage, processes it (transforms it) in some way, and produces output that serves as the input for the next stage. The general idea is to break down a larger problem into smaller, more manageable components that can be easily piped together to support complex sequence processing. In this architecture style, connectors serve as the pipes or conduits through which data flows between filters. Therefore, it's likely that a device receiving inputs from multiple connectors and generating transformed outputs would use this architecture pattern.

Although the Layered architecture style also supports input processing, it is typically used when building applications that have multiple layers of abstraction to create a clear separation between functionality. Each layer only communicates with the adjacent layers, and requests/data passes through them vertically from one layer to another. However, this communication is not typical via connectors and filters; rather, it's more commonly done with well-defined interfaces or APIs.
