This document discusses threads and threading concepts. It defines threads as lightweight processes that improve application performance through parallelism. It describes two types of threads - user threads and kernel threads. It also defines key threading terms like single-threaded, multithreaded, thread libraries, thread pools, Java threads, Windows threads, and thread cancellation. Finally, it mentions drawing many-to-one and one-to-one models related to threads.

1.It is basically a lightweight process which helps to improve performance of an application
software through parallelism. -Thread 2-3 2 Types of Thread -User threads -Kernel threads 4.it is a processes contain the execution of instructions in a single sequence. -Single-threaded 5.These processes allow the execution of multiple parts of the program at the same time. -multithreaded 6. Its provides the programmer with an API for creating and managing threads. -Thread Libraries 7.it is a collection of threads on which work items can be scheduled. -thread pool 8.it is the fundamental model of program execution in a Java program, and the Java language and its API provide a rich set of features for the creation and management of threads. -Java threads 9.The technique for creating threads using the Windows thread library is similar to the Pthreads technique in several ways. -Windows Threads 10. allows a thread to terminate the execution of any other thread in the process. -thread cancellation Draw the Many to One Model 5pts Draw the One to One Model 5pts
