Explain What Is The Difference Between Process And Thread With Real T

1.	Explain What Is The Difference Between Process And Thread With Real Time Examples?
Answer» Threads share the address space of the process that created it; processes have their own address. Threads have direct access to the data segment of its process; processes have their own COPY of the data segment of the parent process. Threads can DIRECTLY communicate with other threads of its process; processes must use interprocess communication to communicate with sibling processes. Threads have almost no overhead; processes have considerable overhead. New threads are easily created; new processes require DUPLICATION of the parent process. Threads can exercise considerable control over threads of the same process; processes can only exercise control over child processes. Changes to the main thread (cancellation, priority change, etc.) may AFFECT the BEHAVIOR of the other threads of the process; changes to the parent process does not affect child processes.
