            • Multithreading typically refers to sharing a single CPU between multiple tasks (or "threads") in a way designed to minimise the time required to switch threads. This is accomplished by sharing as much as possible of the program execution environment between the different threads so that very little state needs to be saved and restored when changing thread. Multiple threads can be executed in parallel on many computer systems. This multithreading generally occurs by time slicing, wherein a single processor switches between different threads--in which case the processing is not literally "simultaneous", for the single processor is only really doing one thing at a time. On a multiprocessor system, threading can be achieved via multiprocessing, wherein different threads can run simultaneously on different processors. www.NetworkDictionary.com
          • Example sentence(s)
            • The design of the Java language makes multithreading essential for all but the simplest applets. In particular, IO and GUI programming both require multithreading to provide a seamless experience for the user. - IBM by
            • On a multi-processor computer, multithreading is implemented with a mixture of time-slicing and genuine concurrency – where different threads run code simultaneously on different CPUs. - O'Reilly Media by
            • Multithreading requires careful programming. For most tasks, you can reduce complexity by queuing requests for execution by thread pool threads. - Microsoft Corporation by

            • Многонишковите (multithreaded) програми представляват програми, които могат да изпълняват едновременно няколко редици от програмни инструкции. Всяка такава редица от програмни инструкции наричаме thread (нишка). Изпълнението на многонишкова програма много прилича на изпълнение на няколко програми едновременно. Например в Microsoft Windows е възможно едновременно да слушаме музика, да теглим файлове от Интернет и да въвеждаме текст. Тези три действия се изпълняват от три различни програми (процеси), които работят едновременно. Когато няколко процеса в една операционна система работят едновременно, това се нарича многозадачност. Когато няколко отделни нишки в рамките на една програма работят едновременно, това се нарича multithreading (многонишковост). Светлин Наков - by 4leavedClover
          • Example sentence(s)
            • В едно приложение понякога се налага да се изпълняват операции, отнемащи много време ( при дълбока рекурсия, при работа с големи обеми от данни). Докато те се изпълняват потребителският интерфейс на отговаря, тъй като приложението вече е поела съответната времеотнемаща операция. В такива случаи потребителят трябва да бъде известяван за статуса на извършваната работа и при необходимост да допуска потребителска намеса. Този и други подобни проблеми се решават чрез реализиране на многонишковост. - teacher.bg by 4leavedClover

          • Definition(s)
            • Een thread (Engels voor draad) op een computer is een proces dat binnen een proces uitgevoerd wordt. Met behulp van threads kan een computerprogramma verschillende taken "tegelijkertijd" uitvoeren net zoals in een besturingssysteem met multitasking meerdere processen tegelijk kunnen draaien. Het gebruik van meerdere threads wordt multithreading genoemd. Wikipedia - by Ron Willems
          • Example sentence(s)
            • Het ouderwetse idee dat iedere processor één thread tegelijk kan verwerken is sinds een paar jaar achterhaald. Om ontwikkelaars alvast wakker te schudden introduceerde Intel in 2003 een SMT (Simultanious MultiThreading) techniek genaamd HyperThreading. Er zitten echter nogal wat haken en ogen aan deze vorm van hardwarematige multithreading. - Tweakers.net by Ron Willems
            • Mac OS 8.0 bestaat uit een oude architectuur in een nieuwe jasje. Geheugenbescherming en multithreading behoren niet tot de eigenschappen van Mac OS. - Computable by Ron Willems
            • De meeste functies in LightWave zijn multithreaded, wat betekent dat deze functies gebruik kunnen maken van meerdere processoren in dezelfde computer. - Wikipedia by Ron Willems
