Difference between Uni Processor Systems and Multiprocessor Systems in Computer. Parameter Uni Processor Systems Multiprocessor Systems Description If a System contains only one processor for processing then it is called a single processor system. If a system contains two or more than two processors for processing than it is called multiprocessor system. Use of Co-Processors Yes, Single Processors uses multiple Controllers that are designed to handle special tasks and can execute limited instruction sets. E.g. DMA Controller, North/South Bridge. In Multi Processor Systems Two Types of approaches are Used: 1) Symmetric Multiprocessing(SMP) 2) Asymmetric Multiprocessing In Asymmetric Multiprocessing one Processor works as Master and Second Processor act as Slave And in Symmetric Multiprocessing each processor performs all the tasks within the operating system.
