Strange, I had no problem Googling it...

Computer multitasking - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Multiprogramming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Multiprocessing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Multithreading (computer architecture) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I know. That's why I moved it to the lobby. The question covers general programming topics, not Java, and thus does not belong in one of the Java forums.

Please spell words in full, and use uppercase letters where appropriate. This is a programming forum, not SMS chat. Also avoid multiple punctuation marks -- they're annoying.
