RE: Types of Parallel Processing

Hardware wise thereÂ areÂ 3 types of parallel processing systems available:
1. SMP (symetric multiprocessing: multiple CPUs, shared memory, single OS)
2. MPP (Massively Parallel Processing Systems: multiple CPUs each having a personal set of resources - memory, OS, etc, but physically housed on the same machine)
3. Clusters: same as MPP, but physically dispersed (not on the same box & connected via high speed networks).

DS offers 2 types of parallelism to take advantage of the above hardware:
1. Pipeline Parallelism
2. Partition Parallelism

-hope this helps.
