What are the components used in SMP and Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) machines?

The components used in SMP and MPP machines are as follows:

- Processor Node: is used to provide the hardware assembly that contains the tightly coupled CPUs.

- It consists of SMP configuration with a single node processor and then connects it to the disk arrays.

- BYNET: is used to control the Hardware interprocessing network that allows the link nodes to be in sync with the MPP system.

- It has a single node SMP system that gets configured using the virtual BYNET drivers and then implementation of the services being done.

- This provides a way to implement the broadcasting system that provides point to point communication between different processors.
