In computer architecture, dual processor can refer to two different types of multiprocessing:
- A computer with two central processing units
- A dual-core central processing unit: two processors combined into a single integrated circuit or package.
Famous quotes containing the word dual:
“Thee for my recitative,
Thee in the driving storm even as now, the snow, the winter-day
declining,
Thee in thy panoply, thy measur’d dual throbbing and thy beat
convulsive,
Thy black cylindric body, golden brass and silvery steel,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
