Definition of Thread (computer science) In computer science, a thread of execution is the smallest sequence of programmed instructions that can be managed independently by a scheduler, which is typically a part of the operating system.
A thread is a path of execution within a process. Also, a process can contain multiple threads. When you start Word, the operating system creates a process and begins executing the primary thread of that process. All threads in a program must run the same executable. 2  A child process, on the other hand, may run a different executable by calling an exec function. 3  An errant thread can harm other threads in the same process because threads share the same virtual memory space and other resources.
