A thread in a CPU is a line of information that the CPU must process. You can look at the threads in your computer by hitting ctrl+alt+Del and going into the process tab.
No, a CPU can process millions or billions of instructions per second. It does not have a limit of a hundred keystrokes of input at a time. It depends on the CPU's processing power and the complexity of the instructions being executed.
No data is stored in the CPU. The CPU only performs arithmetic and logical operations. However, the CPU is provided with a small memory unit called cache, which rapidly feeds the CPU with data to calculate.
No, a CPU can handle much more than a hundred keystrokes of input at a time. CPUs process data in binary form and can execute multiple instructions simultaneously, depending on their architecture and capabilities. The amount of input a CPU can handle is determined more by factors like memory capacity and processing speed.
The common values needed to determine the travel distance of a thread are the thread pitch (distance between threads), the number of turns or rotations made by the thread, and the diameter of the thread spool. By knowing these values, you can calculate the total distance the thread travels when wound or unwound.
It depends on the specific CPU, but on average, a typical CPU weighs around 50-100 grams, which is equivalent to 0.05-0.1 kilograms.
yes, because if process is terminated then its related thread has no work. After completion of process the kernel generates a thread that will cancelled the thread in order to save the time and memory of CPU.
Theoretically a thread will give up its CPU time voluntarily by using the yield feature. But practically, the programmer will write the code and make the thread give up its CPU time. So it is not a voluntary act from the threads perspective. It is just doing it because the programmer made it do so.
When a particular thread has many dependent thread, and that particular thread is terminated, then all the threads that depends on that terminated thread will no longer belong to something and they will certainly mislead to their each functions. This is what it call orphan thread.
interrupt
CPU Bound means that the thread is not waiting for any external event, such as I/O, the release of a time delay, or another thread. Long running threads such as calculations tend to be CPU Bound.It really has nothing to do with C programming. It is a generic computer term.
The fan will work - but it will spin constantly - as it would have no data to rely on to regulate the temperature of the CPU.
It will not operate without a CPU.
Context switching between kernel threads typically requires saving the value of the CPU registers from the thread being switched out and restoring the CPU registers of the new thread being scheduled.
The CPU scheduler is the part of the Operating System that determines when to allow each thread to execute. Usually this is done by seeing if all the wait conditions, such as IO wait, timer wait, semaphore wait, etc. have been cleared, and if the thread priority or round-robin turn criteria have been met.
CPU is the central processing unit of a computer. Without the CPU it is impossible that the internet will work.
Basically a thread means a process which CPU is executing at particular time, if you want to run many processes (applications) in the same time, you need to have multithread OS.
The theme is the constant thread that binds a work of fiction together.
