Multi-core Processors
|
ALSO CALLED: Multicore Processors, Dual Core Processors, and Dual-core Processors
DEFINITION: A multi-core processor is an integrated circuit (IC) to which two or more processors have been attached for enhanced performance, reduced power consumption, and more efficient simultaneous processing of multiple tasks (see parallel processing). A dual core

MULTI-CORE PROCESSORS DEFINITION (continued):
set-up is somewhat comparable to having multiple, separate processors installed in the same computer, but because the two processors are actually plugged into the same socket, the connection between them is faster. Ideally, a dual core processor is nearly twice as powerful as a single core processor. In practice, performance gains are said to be about fifty percent: a dual core processor is likely to be about one-and-a-half times as powerful as a single core processor. Multi-core processing is
