Explain, in simple terms, what a process is, how they relate to + applications, how some are 'system processes', and what you can do with a + process.

+
+ +

A process is a program or application being executed by the + system. When an application is launched, the system assigns a unique process ID + (PID), and its instructions and data are loaded into memory.

+ +

The Processes tab displays information on processes, and allows + you to Stop, Continue, End, Kill, + or change the priority of a process. If you choose to display + All Processes, the process list will include + system processes, which run in the background providing various + services that keep a computer running.
