whether the mulitasking and multiprocessing are same or
not.
Answer Posted / boss
Please be sure with the terminology here. No confusion abt Multitaking. But the second one, is it Multiprocess or multiprocessing ?? If you meant to say multiprocessing ANS#3 above is the correct response. If it is multiprocessing, ANS#8 gives you the right response to an extent.
Task, Process and thread: all these terms have their own meaning depending upon the OS. In General, this is what it is.
Task is a general term. A task can be a Process or a Thread.
Process is a program in execution and it has its own memory.
Threads are created and run in the context a process. A process can have multiple threads.
Ex for Process: MS Word, Notepad, calculator ete etc
Ex for threads: Within MSword, there will be multiple threads. One for grammar checking, one for formatting, one for printing etc etc.
Hope this gives you some idea in general.
