MISD
Micheal J. Flynn introduced the idea of an MISD (Multiple Instruction, Single Data) computer architectures in his original taxonomy in 1966.[1]
Dr. Yan Solihin defines MISD as "..an architecture in which multiple processing elements from different instruction streams, and data is passed from one processing element to the next."[2]
