  2. Thread (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(computing)

    In computer science, a thread of execution is the smallest sequence of programmed instructions that can be managed independently by a scheduler, which is typically a part of the operating system. [1] In many cases, a thread is a component of a process .

    Usually, the standoff has a #6-32 UNC male thread on one end which screws into a threaded hole in the case or motherboard backplate and a #6-32 UNC female thread in the other end which accepts a screw to retain the motherboard. Less often, the standoff has a female thread in both ends and a second screw is used to attach it to the case.

    Only when the data for the previous thread had arrived, would the previous thread be placed back on the list of ready-to-run threads. For example: Cycle i: instruction j from thread A is issued. Cycle i + 1: instruction j + 1 from thread A is issued. Cycle i + 2: instruction j + 2 from thread A is issued, which is a load instruction that misses ...

  5. Threaded code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_code

    In computer science, threaded code is a programming technique where the code has a form that essentially consists entirely of calls to subroutines.It is often used in compilers, which may generate code in that form or be implemented in that form themselves.

  6. Simultaneous multithreading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_multithreading

    Fine-grained multithreading—such as in a barrel processor—issues instructions for different threads after every cycle, while coarse-grained multithreading only switches to issue instructions from another thread when the current executing thread causes some long latency events (like page fault etc.). Coarse-grain multithreading is more ...

  7. Temporal multithreading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_multithreading

    Temporal multithreading is one of the two main forms of multithreading that can be implemented on computer processor hardware, the other being simultaneous multithreading. The distinguishing difference between the two forms is the maximum number of concurrent threads that can execute in any given pipeline stage in a given cycle .

  9. Micro-thread (multi-core) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro-thread_(multi-core)

    Micro-threading is a software-based threading framework that creates small threads inside multi-core or many-core processors. Each core may have two or more tiny threads that utilize its idle time. It is like hyper-threading invented by Intel or the general multi-threading architecture in modern micro-processors.
