Question
What is the difference between multitasking and multithreading
Answers
Multitasking includes two ways for representation :
1. Preemptive multitasking: where the system terminates the idle process without asking the user.
For example: Unix/Linux, Windows NT
2. Non-preemptive multitasking: where the system ask the process to give the control to other process for execution.
For example: Windows 3.1 and Mac OS 9.
Multithreading :
1. Multithreaded programs are the program that extend the functionality of the multitasking by dividing the program in thread and then execute the task as individual threads.
2. Threads run in a different area and each thread utilizes some amount of CPU and memory for execution.   Your Comment

  • Q "storage location in pm" we have a problem here. Our design is, the delivery address in the purchase order is deriving from the storage location. So, when creating the request from work order, we enter the material master (if it is stock item) as well as the storage location, vendor details, etc, under the component tab. Then, the storage location will be defaulted into pr, then po. Hence, the delivery address is there. But in service, i can't enter any storage location. Is there a solution for this? if i create the service in pm (via iw31), is there a way for me to enter the storage location?
