Hi, How does a computer use the cores of its CPU? Let us say I have a laptop with 4 cores (quad core processor);
If I open 2 pages of yahoo (one page for yahoo email reading, another page for internet banking), 1 page of Microsoft Word, and same time an antivirus running in the background, all these 4 activities happening at the same time then will the computer assign 1 separate core for each of these 4 above mentioned activities or same single core will take care of all these 4 activities, or may be 2 cores will take care of all the above mentioned 4 activities?.
Once again the 4 different activities are as follows;
1) 1 page of Yahoo for yahoo email
2) 1 page of yahoo or other browser window for internet banking
3) 1 page of microsoft word
4) An antivirus scanning the computer on the back ground
The question is if the above 4 activities are going on simultaneously then one single core will handle all these 4 activities, or 1 core each for each of the above activities, or some other kind of core assignments? Thanks!
