A uniprocessor system is a computersystem with a single central processing unit. As more and more computers employ multiprocessingarchitectures, such as SMP and MPP, the term is used to refer to systems that still have only oneCPU. Most desktop computers are now shipped with multiprocessing architectures.
A single processor is one which the system has single CPU
The single most expensive component of a system built from separate components is generally the processor.

Microprocessor is a single chip processor.
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.
it a single processor
It is called a micro-processor......a processor on a single chip
Intel is currently preparing a six core processor for release.Four processor are the most you can get now.
Quite simply, a Uni (Single) core processor has only a single primary calculations core. A Multi (Dual, quad, hexi, etc) core processor has more than one primary calculations core.
AMD, Intel, ARM, VIA, Samsung, etc have all produced or manufactured a single core or variant of a single core processor at some point. I'm sure there's more, but I can't imagine you need to know all of them. If you meant FIRST single-core processor... The Intel 4004 was a 4-bit processor manufacturered in 1971-- This has the distinction of being the first fully complete processor contained on a single chip.
Four independent cores into a single package composed of a single IC. A dual-core processor contains two cores, and a quad-core processor contains four cores.

An example of a single core Processor is anything from Intel's first processor to the late Pentium 4 era. There are also some single core Pentium Core 2/duo line products but those were very cheap for consumers.
