Multithreading is a program execution technique that allows for concurrent (simultaneous) execution of two or more parts of a program (threads) for maximum utilization of a CPU. Multi-threaded applications are applications that have two or more threads that run concurrently. Therefore, it is also known as concurrency. With the rise of multi-core machines, multithreading and concurrency concepts are essential skills for Software Engineers.
