Dear,

In Java, Multithreading refers to a process of executing two or more threads simultaneously for maximum utilization of the CPU. A thread in Java is a lightweight process requiring fewer resources to create and shares the process resources. Multithreading is similar to multitasking, but enables the processing of multiple threads at one time, rather than multiple processes. For example, a multithreaded operating system may run several background tasks, such as logging file changes, indexing data, and managing windows at the same time.

Hope this helps!
