multiple instruction, multiple data (MIMD) is a technique employed to achieve parallelism. Machines using MIMD have a number of processor cores that

hardware sense. In Flynn's taxonomy, multiprocessors as defined above are MIMD machines. As the term "multiprocessor" normally refers to tightly coupled

data and results are pulsed to neighboring processors. Based on Flynn's MIMD (multiple instruction, multiple data streams) terminology, this category

parallel programming and can be considered a subcategory of MIMD in that it refers to MIMD execution of a given ("single") program. It is also a prerequisite

SWAR environment. By using more complicated structures, one could also have MIMD parallelism. Although those two paradigms were efficient, real-world implementations

supercomputers are based on a MIMD architecture. Although these are not part of Flynn's work, some further divide the MIMD category into the two categories

this type. Applications for this architecture are much less common than MIMD and SIMD, as the latter two are often more appropriate for common data parallel
