Asymmetric Multiprocessing (AMP) is a computing architecture where multiple processors work on different tasks simultaneously, but each processor may have different capabilities and roles. In this setup, one processor, often referred to as the master, handles the main tasks, while other processors, known as slaves, perform specific functions. This allows for efficient resource utilization and can improve performance for certain applications. In contrast to Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP), where all processors are equal and share the same memory, AMP systems can be more flexible. They are commonly used in embedded systems, such as smartphones and automotive control systems, where specialized processors can handle specific tasks like graphics or signal processing.
