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.

Is DOS a single processor or multi processor?

DOS (Disk Operating System) is primarily a single-user, single-tasking operating system designed for use on single-processor systems. While it can run on multi-processor hardware, it does not natively support multi-threading or multi-tasking capabilities, limiting its functionality to one active process at a time. Therefore, it operates effectively in a single-processor environment.
