Multicomputer configuration:
- A multi computer configuration is any arrangement of multiple computers.
- It is used to support specific services or applications.
- A multicomputer system consists of more than one processor and each processor contains local memory.
- In some cases, processors may be on a common bus that is closely coupled and in other cases; it is distributed on a network that is loosely coupled.
- Multicomputer configuration is the final factor that reduces the distinction between computer classes.
