    The document discusses four types of parallel processing architectures: SISD, SIMD, MISD, and MIMD. SISD refers to a single processor executing one instruction at a time on a single data stream. SIMD has multiple processing units executing the same instruction on different data streams. MISD has multiple units executing different instructions on the same data. MIMD has multiple processors each executing different instructions on different data asynchronously.

    SISD (Single Instruction, Single Data stream)

    Single Instruction, Single Data (SISD) refers to an Instruction Set Architecture in


    which a single processor (one CPU) executes exactly one instruction stream at a time
    and also fetches or stores one item of data at a time to operate on data stored in a
    single memory unit. Most of the CPU design, based on the von Neumann
    architecture, from the beginning till recent times are based on the SISD. The SISD
    model is a typical non-pipelined architecture with the general-purpose registers, as
    well as dedicated special registers such as the Program Counter (PC), the Instruction
    Register (IR), Memory Address Registers (MAR) and Memory Data Registers (MDR).

    SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data streams)


    Single Instruction, Multiple Data (SIMD) is an Instruction Set Architecture that have a
    single control unit (CU) and more than one processing unit (PU) that operates like a
    von Neumann machine by executing a single instruction stream over PUs, handled
    through the CU. The CU generates the control signals for all of the PUs and by which
    executes the same operation on different data streams. The SIMD architecture, in
    effect, is capable of achieving data level parallelism just like with vector processor.
    Some of the examples of the SIMD based systems include IBM's AltiVec and SPE for
    PowerPC, HP's PA-RISC Multimedia Acceleration eXtensions (MAX), Intel's MMX and
    iwMMXt, SSE, SSE2, SSE3 and SSSE3, AMD's 3DNow! etc.

    MISD (Multiple Instruction, Single Data stream)


    Multiple Instruction, Single Data (MISD) is an Instruction Set Architecture for parallel
    computing where many functional units perform different operations by executing
    different intructions on the same data set. This type of architecture is common

    mainly in the fault-tolerant computers executing the same instructions redundantly


    in order to detect and mask errors.

    MIMD(Multiple Instruction, Multiple Data streams)


    Multiple Instruction stream, Multiple Data stream (MIMD) is an Instruction Set
    Architecture for parallel computing that is typical of the computers with
    multiprocessors. Using the MIMD, each processor in a multiprocessor system can
    execute asynchronously different set of the instructions independently on the
    different set of data units. The MIMD based computer systems can used the shared
    memory in a memory pool or work using distrbuted memory across hetrogeneous
    network computers in a distributed environment. The MIMD architectures is primarily
    used in a number of application areas such as computer-aided design/computeraided manufacturing, simulation, modeling, communication switches etc.
