What is the difference between multitasking and multiprograming?

Multiprogramming is a method of running several different programs in a computer apparently at the same time.Usually on a mainframe - the computer has a number of programs loaded into memory and the operating system switches quickly between them, processing a little bit of each one in turn. The high speed of the processor makes it seem like more than one program is being run at the same time.On a PC it is usually called multitasking.Answer-multitasking is the process which occur when more than one task(job) are executed by CPU at a time....-.Multitasking should not be confusing with multiple program where by in multiprogram more than one program(task) are in the mein memory but each one are executed by CPU at different time...It is impossible CPU to running more than one program at the same time


What are the differences of the time sharing and multiprogramming?

Time-sharing is an approach to interactive computing in which a single computer is used to provide apparently simultaneous interactive general-purpose computing to multiple users by sharing processor time. So basically, time sharing is for multi-user computer systems. Multiprogramming is A form of processing in which a computer holds more than one program in memory and works on them in round-robin fashion that is, by sharing out the processor's time so that each program receives some attention some of the time. This way of working is in contrast to using the processor to run one program at a time.

Is unfortunately a synonym for apparently?

Unfortunately is not usually a synonym for apparently, no. However, under certain instances (usually when used sarcastically), apparently can mean unfortunately. For example, "I thought we were going to win that game, but apparently the team lost today." The speaker uses 'apparently' in a negative tone, which could be replaced with 'unfortunately.'
