Multi-Tasking

  • One  Computer may be working in several tasks concurrently
  • Actually, one task at a time, one small fraction of time for each task
  • Run one task until it gets blocked (need I/O activity) or enough time has elapsed
  • Computer must remember what was being done and where is stopped last in each task
  • More memory allows more tasks to be carried on
