How is a multi-process job run in a single processor machine
Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2004 4:06 pm
Hi there,
When a job consists of several processes and is run in a single processor machine, how is it run? Are these processes run in parallel or one by one?
For example, these process are as following:
process1 -> process2 -> process3
How are they run: all three processes start at the same time and run in parallel or first process1 -> when it completes, process2 starts -> ...
Thanks,
