Abstract
New processors like Graphical Processors Units (GPU) and multicore processors underwent significant transformations in the field of information technology, represented by high-performance processors characterized by high parallelism and nonvolatile memory with hybrid storage hierarchies. Today, discovering information that identify relationships among sets of items from a large and various data is an important problem in any information system. Hence, utilizing new processors from parallel architectures has been a viable means for improving information system performance.
In this paper, we provide a survey of different techniques and solutions used for parallel and distributed management information system. We discuss the motivation for and challenges involved when we use the parallel processors like multicore and GPU also distributed technologies.
