using multiprogramming we can save the time
multiprogramming resources to more than one current application
i.e
we can run multiple applications at a time
that's way we refuses the time
1.high CPU utilization.
2.main memory utilization.
3.the allocation of a computer system and its resources to more than one concurrent application
less time duration required for the large process
many process through sequential and combinational process
micro controller is also a main advantage for the microprocessor
1.increase throughput 2.Economy of scale 3. Increased reliability
Multiprocessor systems have gained popularity over the years as they allow the user to do more than they could with a single processor system. Xbox 360, CELL, and Sequent are examples of multiprocessor systems.
Multiprocessor Operating Systems
smp is tightly coupled ad cmp is loosly coupled
In multiprocessor systems, failure of one processor will not halt the system, but only slow it down by sharing the work of failure system by other systems. This ability to continue providing service is proportional to the surviving hardware is called graceful degradation.

multiprocessor and multicomputer
Advantages include: increase throughput, economy of scale and increased reliability. Multiprocessing is the use of two or more central processing units within a single computer system.
is a number of linked systems, working together closely ,so that they form a single computer

advantages, disadvantages of digital control systems
for improving the efficiency of the computer system.In multiprocessor environment , instructions can be executed parallely.
