Systems development methodology created to radically decrease the time needed to design and implement information systems. RAD relies on extensive user involvement, Joint Application Design sessions, prototyping, integrated CASE tools, and code generators.\n\n(or)\n\nPart of a methodology that specifies incremental development with constant feedback from the customers. The point is to keep projects focused on delivering value and to keep clear and open lines of communication. Oral and written communication is not completely adequate for specification of computer systems. RAD overcomes the limitations of language by minimizing the time between concept and implementation.

for the fact that it's a closed source OS so development has got to be slower than open source

It depends on your background, and on the way you think.\n\nReally, any language is going to involve most of the same things - learning to think in terms of algorithms, and learning to be very precise in what you enter in the computer.\n\nI suggest Java, Visual Basic, or Lisp, each of which will let you do some things quickly - depending on what you want to do quickly, you can choose between them.\n\nJava will build basic text programs fastest, and it will teach you skills that transfer well to other programs. Visual Basic will help you generate Windows programs quickly. Lisp is great if you enjoy playing around and quickly seeing the results of your actions.

reaction and operation time of a task < allowed delay\n\nnot only how fast can it be done, but can it be done as specific times and can these time be accurately reported.\n\n\nis buffering or queuing of data possible.\nmulti-tasking/priority (can not do everything at same time)

A process is another name for an application.  Tasks are simply procedures that the computer is to perform.

I think the question was about processes running on an OS, not software development process.\n\nThe biggest reason is multitasking.  A single process often does not use the full capability of the computer, as it may be waiting for something to complete, generally some kind of IO (e.g. disk or user input).  Multitasking allows the CPU to work on something else while that is occuring.\n\nOnce you decide to have multiple processes, you need some way to manage them, keeping one process from mucking up another process.

Do you mean the framework, or the common runtime language?

In this context, "Application" is just another word for software or program.
