The following table shows the process and thread functions.

Function	Description
CeGetProcessorState	Obtains the state of the specified processor.
CeGetThreadPriority	Gets the priority for a real-time thread.
CeGetThreadQuantum	Gets the time quantum for the specified thread.
CeSetThreadPriority	Sets the priority for a real-time thread on a thread by thread basis.
CeSetThreadQuantum	Sets the time quantum for the specified thread.
CeTlsAlloc	Allocates a thread local storage (TLS) index and sets a cleanup function for the slot.
CeTlsFree	Releases a TLS index and calls the cleanup function.
CreateProcess	Runs a new program
CreateThread	Creates a thread to execute within the address space of the calling process.
ExitProcess	Ends a process and all of its threads.
ExitThread	Ends a thread.
FlushInstructionCache	Flushes the instruction cache for the specified process.
GetCommandLine	Returns a pointer to the command-line string for the current process.
GetCurrentProcess	Returns a pseudohandle for the current process.
GetCurrentProcessId	Returns the process identifier of the calling process.
GetCurrentThread	Returns a pseudohandle for the current thread.
GetCurrentThreadId	Returns the thread identifier, which is used as a handle of the calling thread.
GetExitCodeProcess	Retrieves the termination status of the specified process.
GetExitCodeThread	Retrieves the termination status of the specified thread.
GetProcessTimes	Retrieves the timing information for the specified process.
GetProcessVersion	Retrieves the major and minor version numbers of the system on which the specified process expects to run.
GetThreadPriority	Returns the priority value for the specified thread.
GetThreadTimes	Obtains timing information about a specified thread.
OpenProcess	Returns a handle to an existing process object.
OpenThread	Opens an existing thread object.
ReadProcessMemory	Reads memory in a specified process.
ResumeThread	Decrements a thread's suspend count.
SetThreadContext	Sets the context in the specified thread.
SetThreadPriority	Sets the priority value for the specified thread.
Sleep	Suspends the current thread for a specified interval.
SuspendThread	Suspends the specified thread.
TerminateProcess	Ends the specified process and all of its threads.
TerminateThread	Stops the specified thread.
ThreadProc	Application-defined function that serves as the starting address for a thread.
TlsAlloc	Allocates a thread local storage (TLS) index.
TlsFree	Releases a TLS index, making it available for reuse.
TlsGetValue	Retrieves the value in the calling thread's TLS slot for a specified TLS index.
TlsSetValue	Stores a value in the calling thread's TLS slot for a specified TLS index.
