Multi threading on modern computers enables the processor to handle multiple tasks at once. This effect allows the computer to perform faster, as tasks do not have to wait as long to be completed.

What is the name of intel technology that allows a processor to handle multiple threads at the same time?

Hyper-Threading Technology (HT Technology) is the brand under which Intel markets a generation of processors that can increase efficiency by improving multi-task processing, and are ideal in multi-threaded environments.


About multi threading in Java?

Does having multi processors make a computer system faster?

Yes as two or more processors work together.


Significance of pragma directives in the program?

Pragma directive forces processor to use specific advantages for particular processors such as Hyper Threading, multi cores and so on.


What is quard core?

A quad core is one component (computer chip) consisting of multiple cores (computer processors). Processors were originally developed only using one core. If you wanted to do multiprocessing you needed to have two processors in your computer which meant having a special motherboard that could support multiple processors. The new processors (referred to as Multi-Core processors) are simply a single chip with two or more processors.


What type of latest techniques are used in new processors?

The newest models of CPUs are starting to consider architectural reworkings of everything we know about processors-- This is coming hand-in-hand with the reworkings of other computer components as we approach the limits of matter. Downsizing techniques are expected to be the trend for the time being, with Intel working at a 22 NANO-meter scale, while AMD is working at 32. Intel's next leap is either 16 or directly to 14 nanometer, continuing a processor improvement trend highlighted by Moore's Law: Moore's Law is the observation that over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors on integrated circuits doubles approximately every two years. - Wikipedia, cited from CNet News New processors generally all favor threading over raw per-core performance, and are built in order to utilize higher and higher program threading (Splitting the computer's workload into smaller 'streams' of data) This directly feeds into yet another technique used by Intel, AMD, and ARM for their processors-- Multi-core processors and Hyper-Threading (HT). Threading programs better utilizes multiple processor cores (Or to more efficiently utilize each individual core, in the case of Hyper-Threading) on a multi-core platform, lending to an ever increasingly powerful overall processor.

Difference between threading and multi threading?

I assume you are talking about computers. Mutli-threading is where your CPU is working on more than one task. Threading would be just working on a single task.
