DIAGRAM:
Distributed Computing: Parallel Computing:
1. NUMBER OF COMPUTERS REQUIRED:

* Parallel computing typically requires one computer with multiple processors.


* Distributed computing on the other hand involves several autonomous computer system working on divided tasks.

2.SCALABILITY:

* Parallel computing system are less scalable than distributed computing systems because the memory of a single co
handle so many processors at once .
* Distributed computing system can always scale with additional computers

3.MEMORY:

*Parallel computing all processors share the same memory and the processors communicate with the help of this sha
*Distributed computing systems on the other hand have their own memory and processors.
4.SYNCHRONIZATION:

*Parallel computing all processors share a single master clock for synchronization .
* while distributed computing systems use synchronization algorithms.

5.USAGE:

* parallel computing is used to increase computer performance and for


scientific computing.
* while distributed computing is used to share resources and improve scalability.
