Interprocess communications

Inter process communication is a very vital part of Computer Application operating system. It is thoroughly described here. please read it

Processes

A process is nothing but the execution period of a program. Or instance of a computer program. It contains the program code. There are certain processes depending on the level of execution by the operating system. New,ready,run,wait,terminate. New means the process is being created, Ready means that task or process is waiting to be allotted to any processor, Run means instructions are being executed Wait means that process is waiting for some other event to occur Terminate means the program or process execution has finished. There thread is a part of the process. Where the process has long time for termination and also execution . Depending on the operating system a process can be made up of multiple threads of execution where the instructions are executed concurrently.

processes in usp

process is an instance of a program running in Linux. This is the basic definition that you might have heard before. Though its simple enough to understand but still lets elaborate a bit for the beginners
