The other objectives are fault tolerance and application matching. Types of Multiprocessor:     1. Shared memory multiprocessor -  A shared-memory multiprocessor is an architecture consisting of a modest number of processors, all of which have direct (hardware) access to all the main memory in the system.  This permits any of the system processors to access data that any of the other processors has created or will use. The key to this kind of multiprocessor architecture is the interconnection network that direc...
