In a distributed memory architecture, each processor operates dependently, and if it makes changes to its local memory, that change is not automatically reflected in the memory of other processors.

In a concurrent memory architecture, each processor operates independently, and cannot make changes to its local memory.

Computer memory usually operates at a much faster speed than processors do.

Modern multi-core PCs fall into the SISD classification of Flynn's Taxonomy.
