WOW my barin is working again ... Single Cam ... is an eingine with come Camshaft (cam) ... like popstar sayd .. normally one intake valve and one exuast vavle per cylinder head..

Dual Overhead Cam is a engine that has 2 camshafts one works the intake valves the other the exhuast valves... they can be 8,16,24 and i even seen a 32 valve head ( boat) ....

Twin cam ... well that can be a DOHC .. or DUHC .. Dualunder head cam... < might have a few diffrenet names .. just can't remeber them right now..
