Can any one tell me what is multi thread process. what does it mean by thread

[Steven E. Protter]

Shalom,

A multi threaded process is a process that can do more than one thing at a time. It is a form of multi tasking, where an application can have multiple threads, doing work independently.

This helps the process/application take advantage of multiple cpu systems.
