Multiprocessor Support and NUMA Architecture in Operating Systems
Multiprocessor support in operating systems and NUMA architecture are critical to improving the performance of modern computer systems. In our blog post, we examine in detail what multiprocessor support is in operating systems, how NUMA architecture works, and why it is important. We discuss which operating systems provide this support, common misconceptions about NUMA, performance gains, advantages and disadvantages, security issues, and the future of the architecture. While the importance of information security in multiprocessor systems is emphasized, considerations and the right approach to using multiprocessors are presented. The future potential of NUMA architecture is also evaluated. Introduction: Multiprocessor Support in Operating Systems Today, as technology advances rapidly, the performance of computer systems is increasingly...
