In computer architecture, dual processor can refer to two different types of multiprocessing:

  1. A computer with two central processing units
  2. 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)
