The blocking state explains that a particular process cannot be run anymore.
They may have been killed on purpose or can be crashed due to errors and
warnings. Whatever the reason may be blocked state initiated the killing of
the process .
Processes, Procedures, and Programs
We have already discussed processes in detail. Procedures are processes
that are aligned systematically and linearly. Whereas programs are a set of
procedures that can be combined to create a good system software.
There are some important characteristics of processes that hackers should
be aware of. We will explain some of them below:
There are two types of processes. The first of them are mutually exclusive
processes and the second one is synchronization processes.
Mutually exclusive processes are little skeptical processes because you
cannot run them in the background or correlation with others. For example,
like a recovery software or like using a printer to print papers.
Synchronization processes are usual processes that are that can be run in the
background. You can consider a media player process for this example.
