1. Design, develop and execute a program using any thread library to create the number of threads specified by the user; each thread independently generates a random integer as an upper limit, and then computes and prints the number of primes less than or equal to that upper limit along with that upper limit.
INTRODUCTION
A process defines a Customized Computations framework in which a program executes. In traditional operating system the basic unit of CPU utilization is a process. Each process has its own program counter, its own register states, its own stack, and its own address space. Now a days, in operating system , the basic unit of CPU utilization is thread and a process may consist of one or more threads.
PROCESS AND PROCESS CONTROL BLOCK
A process is a program in execution or an instance of a program running on a computer. Two essential elements of process are program code and a set of data associated with that code. At any given point of time while the program is executing, the process can be uniquely characterized by a number of elements including the following,

State:if the process is currently executing it space is in the running state
Priority:priority level relative to other processes.
Program counter: the address of the next instruction in the program to be executed.
Memory pointers: includes pointers to the program court and data associated with the process plus any memory blocks shared with other processes.
Context data: these are the data that are presenting registers in the processor while the process is executing.
I/O status information: includes outstanding I/O requests, I/O devices’ assigned to the process, list of files in use by process and so on.
Accounting Information: May include the amount of processor time and clock time used, time limits, account numbers and so on.
