In computer science, distributed memory refers to a multiprocessor computer system in which each processor has its own private memory. [1] Computational tasks can only operate on local data, and if remote data are required, the computational task must communicate with one or more remote processors.
Distributed data processing. Distributed data processing [1] (DDP) [2] was the term that IBM used for the IBM 3790 (1975) and its successor, the IBM 8100 (1979). Datamation described the 3790 in March 1979 as "less than successful." [3] [4] Distributed data processing was used by IBM to refer to two environments: IMS DB/DC; CICS/DL/I [5] [6]
Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI) is an approach to solving complex learning, planning, and decision-making problems.It is embarrassingly parallel, thus able to exploit large scale computation and spatial distribution of computing resources.
Distributed learning may be dependent on time if it includes synchronous sessions, and further time dependent if the course is paced. The oldest and most commonly used of these terms, distance education, can be used to describe distributed learning as defined above. "Distributed education" lacks a correspondence school tone and history and thus ...
Distributed computing is a field of computer science that studies distributed systems, defined as computer systems whose inter-communicating components are located on different networked computers. [1] [2] The components of a distributed system communicate and coordinate their actions by passing messages to
Stream processing is essentially a compromise, driven by a data-centric model that works very well for traditional DSP or GPU-type applications (such as image, video and digital signal processing) but less so for general purpose processing with more randomized data access (such as databases). By sacrificing some flexibility in the model, the ...
A distributed database is a database in which data is stored across different physical locations. [1] It may be stored in multiple computers located in the same physical location (e.g. a data centre); or maybe dispersed over a network of interconnected computers.
In computer science, distributed shared memory (DSM) is a form of memory architecture where physically separated memories can be addressed as a single shared address space.
