We use PID and PPID to track process tree. For killing any process, we should refer to PID. To track PPID we could kill a group of related processes.
STIME is very helpful to indicate the multi-process with the same script name. Usually they have different run time.
CMD is also helpful to get command name and path.

ADDR
(-l and l flags) Contains the segment number of the process stack, if normal;
if a kernel process, the address of the preprocess data area.
BND
(-o THREAD flag) The logical processor number of the processor to which the
kernel thread is bound (if any). For a process, this field is shown if all its
threads are bound to the same processor.
C
(-f, l, and -l flags) CPU utilization of process or thread, incremented each
time the system clock ticks and the process or thread is found to be running.
The value is decayed by the scheduler by dividing it by 2 once per second. For
the sched_other policy, CPU utilization is used in determining process
scheduling priority. Large values indicate a CPU intensive process and result
in lower process priority whereas small values indicate an I/O intensive
process and result in a more favorable priority.
CMD
(-f, -l, and l flags) Contains the command name. The full command name and its
parameters are displayed with the -f flag.
COMMAND
(s, u, and v) Contains the command name. The full command name and its
parameters are displayed with the -f flag.

requested.
%CPU
(u and v flags) The percentage of time the process has used the CPU since the
process started. The value is computed by dividing the time the process uses
the CPU by the elapsed time of the process. In a multi-processor environment,

(Because the time base over which this data is computed varies, the sum of all
%CPU fields can exceed 100%.)
%MEM

Flags
The following flags are preceded by a - (minus sign):
-A Writes to standard output information about all processes.
-a Writes to standard output information about all processes, except the session
leaders and processes not associated with a terminal.
-c Clist Displays only information about processes assigned to the workload
management classes listed in the Clist variable. The Clist variable is either a
comma separated list of class names or a list of class names enclosed in double
quotation marks (" "), which is separated from one another by a comma or by one
or more spaces, or both.
-d Writes information to standard output about all processes, except the session
leaders.
-e Writes information to standard output about all processes, except kernel
processes.
-F Format Same as -o Format
-f Generates a full listing.
-G Glist Writes information to standard output only about processes that are in
the process groups listed for the Glist variable. The Glist variable is either a
comma-separated list of process group identifiers or a list of process group
identifiers enclosed in double quotation marks (" ") and separated from one
another by a comma or by one or more spaces. This flag is equivalent to the -g
Glist flag.

followed by an additional output line for each kernel thread. This flag does not
display thread-specific fields ( bnd, scount, sched, thcount, and tid), unless
the appropriate -o Format flag is specified.
-N Gathers no thread statistics. With this flag ps simply reports those
statistics that can be obtained by not traversing through the threads chain for
the process.
-n NameList Specifies an alternative system name-list file in place of the
default. The operating system does not use the -n flag, since information is
supplied directly to the kernel.
-o Format Displays information in the format specified by the Format variable.
Multiple field specifiers can be specified for the Format variable. The Format
variable is either a comma-separated list of field specifiers or a list of field
specifiers enclosed within a set of " " (double-quotation marks) and separated
from one another by a comma or by one or more spaces, or both.
Each field specifier has a default header. The default header can be overridden
by appending an = (equal sign) followed by the user-defined text for the header.
The fields are written in the order specified on the command line in column
format. The field widths are specified by the system to be at least as wide as
the default or user-defined header text. If the header text is null, (such as if
-o user= is specified), the field width is at least as wide as the default
header text. If all header fields are null, no header line is written.
The following field specifiers are recognized by the system:

intensive process and result in lower process priority whereas small values
indicate an I/O intensive process and result in a more favorable priority.

be truncated when displayed by ps. For processes which do not set their tag,
this field displays as a hyphen (-).
thcount
Indicates the number of kernel threads owned by the process. The default
header for this field is THCNT.

Options
The following options are not preceded by a - (minus sign):
a Displays information about all processes with terminals (ordinarily only the
user's own processes are displayed).
c Displays the command name, as stored internally in the system for purposes of
accounting, rather than the command parameters, which are kept in the process
address space.
e Displays the environment as well as the parameters to the command, up to a
limit of 80 characters.
ew Wraps display from the e flag one extra line.
eww Wraps display from the e flag as many times as necessary.
g Displays all processes.
l Displays a long listing having the F, S, UID, PID, PPID, C, PRI, NI, ADDR, SZ,
PSS, WCHAN, TTY, TIME, and CMD fields.
n Displays numerical output. In a long listing, the WCHAN field is printed
numerically rather than symbolically. In a user listing, the USER field is
replaced by a UID field.
s Displays the size (SSIZ) of the kernel stack of each process (for use by
system maintainers) in the basic output format. This value is always 0 (zero)
for a multi-threaded process.
t Tty Displays processes whose controlling tty is the value of the Tty variable,
which should be specified as printed by the ps command; that is, 0 for terminal
/dev/tty/0, lft0 for /dev/lft0 , and pts/2 for /dev/pts/2.
u Displays user-oriented output. This includes the USER, PID, %CPU, %MEM, SZ,
RSS, TTY, STAT, STIME, TIME, and COMMAND fields.
v Displays the PGIN, SIZE, RSS, LIM, TSIZ, TRS, %CPU, %MEM fields.
w Specifies a wide-column format for output (132 columns rather than 80). If
repeated, (for example, ww), uses arbitrarily wide output. This information is
used to decide how much of long commands to print.
x Displays processes with no terminal.

For understanding the points above, we must understand the 2 different things: Shell and Unix Commands.
We issue all Unix Commands within Unix Shell environment. Shell will interpret (or say process) strings and variables first before they are sent to Unix Commands. For example: echo, ls are Unix Commands, you will issue these commands in an Unix Shell, like Boune Shell, Kane Shell, etc.

awk 中，通常我们使用2个slash "/.../" 将正则表达式wrap 起来，比如下面的awk 命令将文件中每一行开头的"str"替换为"newStr"：
$ awk '{sub(/^str/, "newStr"); print}' file
但如果"str" 是一个awk变量或者是一个函数的返回值，那么需要进行如下修改才能工作：将"/.../"替换成双引号，并使变量在双引号之外。如下：
$ awk '{sub("^"$NF, "newStr"); print}' file
或者：
$ awk '{reg = "^"$NF; sub(reg, "newStr"); print}' file
以上$NF是awk的内部变量，代表当前行最后一列的值，可以替换成其它awk 变量或者有返回值的函数。如果需要，变量后面可以继续添加用双引号引起的正则表达式。
