MPP

Short for Massively Parallel Processing, MPP is a type of computing that uses CPUs in parallel to execute a single program. One of the significant differences between SMP and MPP is that with MPP each CPU has its own memory that helps prevent a possible hold up that you may experience with SMP when all the CPUs attempt to access the memory at once.
