2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the primary advantage of using interrupt-driven I/O over programmed I/O?
Think about CPU optimization.
Define busy waiting.
It's about the CPU's idle time.
What is the main benefit of interrupt-driven I/O?
Think about CPU activity.
True or False: Control signals are not needed for interrupt-driven I/O.
Consider the roles of control signals.
You operate a system with multiple I/O devices that generate interrupts. Design a simple flowchart describing how the CPU will handle these interrupts considering priority.
Think about how systems prioritize tasks based on urgency.
Describe how context switching during interrupts can affect real-time systems and suggest techniques to mitigate potential issues.
Consider how timing and execution predictability are crucial.
