Moving from one process state(like Ready state, running state, termination state) to another process state. Process transition may occur due to different purposes like if a process: waiting for I/o operations, waiting for data from disk(moved to blocked state from running state and stays there until data extraction process in not over), or if there left no instruction in the process to be executed....then it moved to termination state from running state, If a process is in running state and at that time it is interrupted by another process, then process move from running state to ready state(join queue again and waiting for its turn again).

What is process control block in operating system?
All of the information needed to keep track of a process when switching is kept in a data package called process control block.s A PCB is a data structure in the operating system kernel containing the information needed to manage a particular process.
