+ \subsection{}
+ Shared memory has all of the processors access one large pool of memory while distributed memory has each processor have a section of the memory.
+ \subsection{}
+ Distributed memory programs communicate via pipes and message queues while shared memory programs share memory with locks in place to prevent unintended behavior and race conditions.
+ \subsection{}
+ Shared memory is in most devices nowadays with even phones having multiple cores and a single bank of shared memory. Large rendering farms and HPC will have distributed memory to split rendering or to maximize performance.
+ \subsection{}
+ Distributed is easier to scale because the cluster can have nodes added or removed easily without affecting the other nodes.
