7. Multi-threading

Multithreading allows you to break down an application into multiple sub-tasks and run these tasks simultaneously.

If you use multithreading properly, your application speed, performance, and rendering can all be improved.

Multithreading is defined as the ability of a processor to execute multiple threads concurrently.

Multi Processing

Applications in a multiprocessing system are broken to smaller routines that run independently. The operating system allocates these threads to the processors improving performance of the system.
