  Symmetric multiprocessing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
SMP systems allow any processor to work on any task no matter where the data for that task is located in memory; with proper operating system support, SMP systems can easily move tasks between processors to balance the workload efficiently.
SMP makes this worse, as only one processor can access memory at a time; it is possible for several processors to be starved.
SMP is only one style of multiprocessor machine; others include NUMA which dedicates different memory banks to different processors.

 Define SMP - a definition from Whatis.com - see also: symmetric multiprocessing
SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) is the processing of programs by multiple processors that share a common operating system and memory.
SMP, also known as a "shared everything" system, does not usually exceed 16 processors.
An advantage of SMP for this purpose is the ability to dynamically balance the workload among computers (and as a result serve more users faster).

 HPCinfo: Hardware - SMP   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
As the name suggests, SMP machines are characterised by tightly-coupled series of identical processors, usually operating on a single shared bank of memory.
One disadvantage of the SMP shared memory model is that all the processors must communicate with a single bank of memory, and this gives rise to the danger of memory bottlenecks.
Earlier designs of SMPs used a single memory bus to connect the processors with the memory; with only so much bus bandwidth available, adding more processors quickly saturates the bus capacity and kills scalability.

SMP keeps a record of the SYSMODS under its control in a VSAM dataset (or group of datasets) known as a CSI (Consolidated Software Inventory).
SMP needs information like this so that when source module y or macro a is changed by a PTF, SMP knows what to do with the supplied text to produce the correct effect on the load modules which were built using the module being changed.
Note that SMP ignores anything in the JCLIN jobstream that is not meaningful to it, so there is little point in supplying JOB classes, region sizes, or numerous other parameters, and it is vital to use the PGM names which SMP recognises.

 Linux Parallel Processing HOWTO: SMP Linux
Despite this, typical SMP communication hardware is so much better than most cluster networks that cluster software will often run better on an SMP than on the cluster for which it was designed.
Although SMP systems have been around for many years, until very recently, each such machine tended to implement basic functions differently enough so that operating system support was not portable.
SMP Linux machines can run multiple of these "threads" in parallel because each "thread" is a full Linux process; the trade-off is that you do not get the same "light-weight" scheduling control provided by some thread libraries under other operating systems.

 Symmetric Multiprocessing Frequently Asked Questions
Symmetric Multiprocessing, or SMP, is the term used to describe a computer system that is equipped with more than one processor, and also equipped with an operating system capable of distributing load evenly over those processors.
For example, one processor may be dedicated to disk operations, another to video operations, and the rest to standard processor tasks.
Well, with an SMP system, only once processor would be maxed out, leaving you another processor to close down the errant application.
