Multi-tasking means doing more than one task at a time; such as printing, burning c.d's, etc. all at the same time. Multi-programming means running more than one program at one time; such as Microsoft Word, AOL, Windows Media Player, all at one time. Multi-processing means that your computer can process more than one thing at a time.

Is windows operating system multiprogramming or multitasking?
multiprogramming
Should real time operating system be necessarily multiprogrammed?
MULTIPROGRAMING .................. The term multiprograming denotes an operating system that,in addtion to supporting multitasking. In multiprograming more than one jobs are active in memory.Within a very small period more than one jobs are executed simultaneously. MULTITASKING ............... In general multiprogramming implies multitasking,but multitasking does not imply multiprogramming. A multitasking operating system is distinguished by its ability to support concurrent execution of two or more active processes. as discussed actually both multitasking and multiprogramming are same no other answer mentioned are justifiable.....

acc. to me,multiprogramming is based on system level and multitasking is based on user level.operating system can execute a program or application once at a time.it means the code related to other applications would be stored in operating systems but it will activate when that particular application is activated by user. acc. to me,multiprogramming is based on system level and multitasking is based on user level.operating system can execute a program or application once at a time.it means the code related to other applications would be stored in operating systems but it will activate when that particular application is activated by user. acc. to me,multiprogramming is based on system level and multitasking is based on user level.operating system can execute a program or application once at a time.it means the code related to other applications would be stored in operating systems but it will activate when that particular application is activated by user.
When we say a system is a multiprogramming system?
Multiprogramming is collecting several jobs in a job pool and the OS selects the job from the pool so that the CPU has one job to execute , in case of any IO request for the job in execution the CPU switches to another job here switching is less compared to multitasking.So a computer system which allows such type of switching in between jobs is called a multiprogramming system. Please make note that multitasking is done by user but multiprogramming is done by operating system only.
