multithreading

GBK English to Norwegian Tech/Engineering Computers (general)
Definition from www.NetworkDictionary.com:
Multithreading typically refers to sharing a single CPU between multiple tasks (or "threads") in a way designed to minimise the time required to switch threads. This is accomplished by sharing as much as possible of the program execution environment between the different threads so that very little state needs to be saved and restored when changing thread. Multiple threads can be executed in parallel on many computer systems. This multithreading generally occurs by time slicing, wherein a single processor switches between different threads--in which case the processing is not literally "simultaneous", for the single processor is only really doing one thing at a time. On a multiprocessor system, threading can be achieved via multiprocessing, wherein different threads can run simultaneously on different processors.
Example sentences:
The design of the Java language makes multithreading essential for all but the simplest applets. In particular, IO and GUI programming both require multithreading to provide a seamless experience for the user. (IBM)
On a multi-processor computer, multithreading is implemented with a mixture of time-slicing and genuine concurrency – where different threads run code simultaneously on different CPUs. (O'Reilly Media)
Multithreading requires careful programming. For most tasks, you can reduce complexity by queuing requests for execution by thread pool threads. (Microsoft Corporation)

flertrådskjøring

Definition from Mitt Dataleksikon:
Flertrådskjøring vil si å kjøre flere deler av et program, kalt "tråder", samtidig. Moderne operativsystemer, som f.eks. Windows XP, støtter flertrådskjøring, men for å utnytte dette må programmet være skrevet på en slik måte at alle trådene i programmet kan kjøre samtidig uten å forstyrre hverandre.
Example sentences:
Øk systemets ytelse for avanserte applikasjoner, teknisk databehandling, applikasjoner med flertrådskjøring samt fleroppgavekjøring. (IBM)

agree Bjørnar Magnussen : dessverre kan Trados 2009 bare utnytte to tråder effektivt
