Different states of a process?
In computing, if a processor is running and doing a number of
activities, those activities are known as its states. As a
processor executes, its state changes. There are number of states
like New state i.e. creation of new process, Running state i.e.
execution of instructions, Waiting state i.e. its a state where
processor is waiting for some activity to occur, Ready state i.e.
in this a particular process has acquired the resources and is
waiting to be assigned to a processor, Terminated state i.e. the
execution of a process has completed.
