Question

different between multiprocessing and multi threading ​

Answer 1

Multiprocessing:--

1.Multiprocessing is basically executing multiple processes at the same time on multiple processors.

2.Multiple processes are executed concurrently.

3.Creation of a process is time-consuming and resource intensive.

4.Multiprocessing can be symmetric or asymmetric.

Multi threading:--

1.Multi programming is keeping several programs in main memory and executing them concurrently using a single CPU only.

2.Multiple threads of a single process are executed concurrently.

3.Creation of a thread is economical in both sense time and resource.

4.Multithreading is not classified.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The key difference between multiprocessing and multithreading is that multiprocessing allows a system to have more than two CPUs added to the system whereas multithreading lets a process generate multiple threads to increase the computing speed of a system.
