Threading Models

Threading models define how a program manages multiple tasks simultaneously. Think of threads as individual workers inside a computer program, each handling a specific part. Different models determine how these workers are organized and share resources. Some models assign many workers to a single task, improving efficiency, while others use dedicated workers for each task, increasing flexibility. These models impact a program’s performance, responsiveness, and complexity. Choosing the right threading model depends on the application's needs, balancing resource use with speed to ensure smooth and effective operation.
