MULTIPROCESSOR SYSTEM
A multiprocessor is a computer system with two or more central
processing units (CPUs), with each one sharing the common main
memory as well as the peripherals.

In multiprocessing, all CPUs may have equal functions or some


may be reserved for specific functions.

EXAMPLES OF MULTIPROCESSORS

MULTICOMPUTER SYSTEMS
A multicomputer system is a computer system with multiple
processors that are connected together to solve a problem. Each
processor has its own memory and it is accessible by that particular
processor and those processors can communicate with each other via
an interconnection network.

It is a cluster of computers that operate as a singular computer

IT can be used for distributed computing


ARCHITECTURE OF MULTICOMPUTER
VIRTUALIZATION
• Virtualization is the creation of a virtual rather than actual version of
something, such as an operating system , a server, a storage device
or network resources.

• In computing, virtualization means to create a virtual version of a


device or resource, such as a server, storage device, network or even
an operating system where the framework divides the resource into
one or more execution environments
TYPES OF VIRTUALIZATION
• OS Virtualization(Virtual Machines): Involves putting a second
instance or multiple instances of an operating system

• Application-Server Virtualization:It spreads applications across


servers, and servers across applications(load balancing)

• Application Virtualization:It mkes applications operate on computers


as if they reside naturally on the hard drive, but instead are running
on a server
TYPES OF VIRTUALIZATION

• Administrative Virtualization:It means segmented admin roles through group and


user policies.

• Network Virtualization: Involves virtually managing IPs, and is accomplished


through tools like routing tables, NICs, switches, and VLAN tags.

• Hardware Virtualization:It involves partioning,mainly hard drives.

• Storage Virtualization:It is an array of servers that are managed by a virtual


storage system.
DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS

• A distributed system is any network structure that consists of


autonomous computers that are connected using a distribution
middleware.

• Computers in this system need; first, it a local memory, and


secondly, it has to connect to the network.

• Examples include; client/server and peer-to-peer systems


ARCHITECTURE OF DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS
PARALLEL COMPUTING

• Parallel computing also known as parallel processing is a type of


computing architecture in which several processors execute or
process an application or computation simultaneously
MULTITHREADING
• Multithreading is a type of execution model that allows multiple
threads to exist within the context of a process such that they
execute independently but share their process resources.

• A thread maintains a list of information relevant to its execution


including the priority schedule, exception handlers, a set of CPU
registers, and stack state in the address space of its hosting process.
MULTIPROCESSOR VS MULTICOMPUTER
MULTIPROCESSOR SYSTEM MULTICOMPUTING SYSTEM

Has two or more CPUs that allow simultaneous A set of processors connected by the
processing of programs communication network that works jointly to
solve a computation problem

Easier to process Less easy to program

More difficult and costly to build Easier and effective to build

Supports parallel computing Supports distributed computng


VIRTUALIZATION VS CLOUD COMPUTING

various task users for a particular task
PARALLEL COMPUTING VS DISTRIBUTED
SYSTEMS
PARALLEL COMPUTING DTRIBUTED SYSTEMS
Occurs in a simple computer Involves multiple computer
Computer can have shared or distributed memory Each computer has its own memory
Processors communicate with each other uing a Computers communicate wit each other via the
bus bus
Increase the performance of the system Perform computation tasks efficiently
DEFINITION OF DEADLOCK
• Ths is a situation where a set of processes are blocked because
each process is holding a resource and waiting for another
resource acquired by some other process

Assigned to Resource 1 Waiting for

Process 1
Process 2

Waiting for
Assigned to
Resource 2
CONDITIONS FOR DEADLOCK
• Mutual exclusion : One or more resource are non-shareable

• Hold and wait : A process is holding at least one resource and waiting
forresources

• No preemption : A resource cannot be taken from a process unless the


process releases the resource

• Circular wait: A set of processes are waiting for each other in circular
form
DETECTION OF DEADLOCK
• Resource allocation graph. If this graph contains a cycle, then
there is deadlock . Else, there is none.

DEADLOCK HANDLING
• Deadlock prevention or avoidance
• Deadlock detection and recovery
• Ignore the problem all together
