Thousands of workstations performing a common task.
For each of the following environments, suggest whether the UMA, NUMA or NORMA memory-access architecture would be best and explain why.
What will be an ideal response?
NORMA. NORMA multiprocessors do not implement physical memory sharing, which would be inefficient and is not necessary for networked computers. UMA would be impossible to construct in a cluster of workstations, and NUMA would be impractical. NORMA systems are the easiest to build in this scenario.
