    Re: Parallel Processors and Multi Core Processors

    Parallel hardware is something were a uniprocessor rules. It has been designed by engineers to gain a better performance. Talking about an multi core cpu it is found that this contains a support for more than 1 cpu. In older times this processors were used to work on servers and they had dedicated hardware support which has been become most common today by reaching desk of every house. Parallel processing simply means a running two cpus on a single task with regular load balancing.
