Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP)
A multiprocessor computer-architecture where two or more identical
processors can connect to a single shared main memory. Most of the common
multiprocessor systems today use an SMP architecture. In the case
of multi-core processors, the SMP architecture applies to the cores,
treating them as separate processors. SMP systems allow any processor to
work on any task no matter where the data for the task are located in memory;
with proper operating system support, SMP systems can easily move tasks between
processors to balance the workload efficiency.
