We have Tasks, which correspond to a running thread. But we are missing Processes, to group threads and implement separate address spaces. This is an important feature but it will take a while to develop.

I think our Task structure is complex enough that it can be considered a process. We don't need separate threads of execution at this point in time, I think - that will be a concern for later.

What we do still need is multiple address spaces, so each process gets one.
