| 1 |
Continuing demands for higher performance
|
| 2 |
Physical limits on single processor performance
|
| 3 |
Increasing number of transistors in a single chip or on a single board implies parallel architectures
|
| 4 |
High costs of internal concurrency
|
| 5 |
Result is rise of multiprocessor architectures
-
And number of processors will continue to increase
|
| 6 |
Increasing importance of DISTRIBUTED computing through the Web and Internet
-
or Intranets which is the Internet internal to organizations
-
Distributed computing is a much larger field
