A characteristic of a multiprocessor system is the ability to execute multiple processes or threads simultaneously, which enhances performance and throughput. These systems often share a common memory space, enabling efficient communication and data sharing between processors. Additionally, multiprocessor systems can provide increased reliability and fault tolerance, as the failure of one processor may not significantly impact overall system functionality.

A processor housing that contains more than one processor is referred to as what term?
A processor housing that contains more than one processor is referred to as a "multi-processor system" or "multiprocessing system." This configuration allows multiple CPUs to work together to improve performance and efficiency by sharing the computational load. Multi-processor systems are commonly used in servers and high-performance computing environments.

Does Windows XP support uni-processor or multi-processor?
XP Home Edition is limited to one processor DIE. It can have any number of CORES. XP can see all of the cores of a Core 2 Quad, for instance. Even if the system in question had two separate die, or chips, XP would still work. It just wouldn't be able to use the second processor.
Definition of multi-core processor?
A multi-core processor is one which combines what are essentially multiple CPUs into a single chip. As far as the operating system and other software are concerned, it is the same as a dual or quad-cpu computer system, even though the cpus are physically one single unit.
