multisäikeisyys
Multisäikeisyys, also known as multithreading, is a technique used in computer programming to improve the performance of a program by allowing multiple threads to run concurrently within a single process. A thread is a sequence of instructions within a program that can be executed independently of other threads. Multithreading enables a program to perform multiple tasks simultaneously, which can lead to significant improvements in efficiency and responsiveness, especially in applications that require concurrent processing.
In a multithreaded environment, the operating system's scheduler allocates CPU time to each thread, allowing them
However, multithreading also introduces several challenges, including synchronization issues, race conditions, and deadlocks. These problems arise
Multithreading is widely used in various applications, including web servers, database management systems, and real-time systems.
