2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is an interrupt?
Think about what happens when a device needs attention from the CPU.
What do we mean by context saving?
How does the CPU remember what it was doing before the interrupt?
What happens first when an interrupt is received?
Think about the order of operations when a request interrupts processing.
True or False: Flag bits can be set by the programmer.
Recall which flags can be modified by the programmer during execution.
Design a mini project that simulates an environment where multiple devices send interrupts to the CPU, illustrating how the system handles context saving and restoring.
Use a programming language to implement this simulation and visualize interrupt handling.
Evaluate how different programmer strategies can influence the effective management of interrupts in real-time systems.
Consider real-time application needs and their critical coding practices for interrupts.
