Ravan and Multicore and Cloud

We had some discussion over food today... thoughtful and funny...

Ravan and Multicore:
In Ramayana, Ravan had 10 heads... was there one head which is master-head and the remaining 9 slave-heads? or all heads are equal?
Does this has any similarity to multicore platforms?

Ravan and Cloud:
In movies and TV-serials, we see Ravan with 1 head normally. when the situation demands, his remaining heads show up. When Rama cut some of those heads, they comeback again.
Does this has any similarity to Cloud-computing? Heads come up on-demand... when they are down, new heads are born... sounds familiar? [one difference is he has 10 heads - that is max. no in-between capacity!]

Ravan and Reconfigurable-Processor (RP):
- Any thoughts?
