What does it mean when we talk about "two-way multithreading?"
I have seen mentions of 2- or 4-way multithreading but failed to find the meaning/definition of these terms.

"two-way multi-threading" is jargon for a processor implementation that can the ability the maintain state and concurrently execute two threads per core. In this diagram, I'm indicating this by two blue boxes per core, each representing a thread execution context.
