The multiprocessing programming interfaces and techniques are for creating and managing multiple threads that can run on one or more processors and for creating and managing child processes. Threads (also known as tasks in Carbon) can be scheduled cooperatively as well as preemptively (the default). Developers can use multiprocessing to increase the performance and responsiveness of their applications.
