Distributed Data Processing
The processing of information in separate locations equipped with independent computers. The
computers are connected by a network, even though the processing is geographically dispersed. Often
a more efficient use of computer processing power since each CPU can be devoted to a certain task.
A LAN is the perfect example of distributed processing.
