process is a execution of a program and program contain set
of instructions but thread is a single sequence stream
within the process.thread is sometime called lightweight
process. single thread alows a os to perform singler task
ata time similarities between process and threads are:
1)share cpu.
2)sequential execution
3)create child
4)if one thread is blocked then the next will be start to
run like process.
dissimilarities:
1)threads are not independent like process.
2)all threads can access every address in the task unlike
process.
3)threads are design to assist onr another and process
might or not might be assisted on one another.
