• Process abstraction provides an interface between the program and the underlying CPU + Memory.
• Definition: A process is an instance of a running program
• Process provides each program with two key abstractions:
• Logical control flow
• Each process seems to have exclusive use of the CPU
• Private virtual address space
• Each process seems to have exclusive use of main memory

• Control flow passes from one process to another via a context switch
•
