Threads[^] are independent processes that can run at the same time in the same address space. Events[^] are external stimuli that cause a program to react on demand (a knock on the door is an event).

Please note that a Thread is not a process. A Processes contain threads which all run in the same memory space.

Well that all depends on whose terminology you are using. On one system I worked on a thread was called an activity. I would be interested to see your definition of a thread.
