    When the scheduler(on one core) sees these concurrent tasks, it allocates some time and memory at runtime to child and lets it run for a bit, if the process does not finish(an infinite loop for example), the scheduler moves on to child_two and so on, checking up on each process, computing a bit. Processes are namespaced in a local registry for a single node. Scheduling across multiple nodes works the same way, only you'd need a different way to manage the global name space of running processes.
