Title
Body
I'm reading up on concurrency. I've got a bit over my head with terms that have confusingly similar definitions. Namely: Processes Threads "Green threads" Protothreads Fibers Coroutines "Goroutines" in the Go language My impression is that the distinctions rest on (1) whether truly parallel or multiplexed; (2) whether managed at the CPU, at the OS, or in the program; and (3..5) a few other things I can't identify. Is there a succinct and unambiguous guide to the differences between these approaches to parallelism?
