Multitasking refers to an operating system's capacity to manage the concurrent activities of many programmes. When talking about an OS, the term "multitasking" is used to describe the system's capacity to handle many tasks at once.
Approaches to multithreading are analyzed and contrasted across a variety of operating systems, including Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, and Android, amongst others. Is it possible that the CPU Scheduling Algorithm may be expressed in the same way?

Each thread is a component of the larger process, which is another way of stating that a process may be broken down into several threads. The practice of running many processes simultaneously inside the same program, or "process," at the same time is known as "multithreading" in the computer world.
