Explain the MIMD model of parallel architecture.

What will be an ideal response?


The MIMD (multiple instruction stream/multiple data stream) model of parallel architecture consists of interconnected processors that independently execute their own program on their own data, communicating as needed with other processors. The MIMD model includes a number of different structures, such as multicore computing, in which multiple processors are packaged together on a single integrated circuit, and cluster computing, in which independent systems such as mainframes, desktops, and laptops are interconnected by a local area network (LAN) such as the Ethernet or a wide area network (WAN) such as the Internet.
