Hi, 

why in multithreading, each thread has its own stack, but all share
the same heap?
I understand that one stack is needed for each thread as each could
have its own procedure call. but why we don't associate a heap for
each thread since each thread can also create dynamically its own
data?

Multiheap?

Many thanks
