Which method of communication is more suitable for handling sporadic events?
Interrupts
Polling
Thread
Which of the following devices commonly use interrupts for communication?
Which method of handling input/output is more suitable for real-time systems?
In Polling, the processor wastes CPU cycles by repeatedly checking the status of the device, whereas in interrupts, the processor can perform other tasks until an occurs.
Which of the following is an advantage of using interrupts over polling?
Interrupts can lead to because of the asynchronous nature of their operation.
Polling can result in higher CPU utilization compared to Interrupts, which can lead to issues.
Polling is a method where the periodically checks a device to see if it needs attention.
Concurrency
An incorrect handling of interrupts can result in a or data corruption.
Deadlock
Interrupt Latency
Interrupts are signals sent by a to the processor to request attention.
Interrupt Vector
What is the purpose of an interrupt controller in a computer system?
Interrupts are essential for handling time-sensitive tasks and real-time .
One advantage of Polling is that it is easier to implement for simple devices.
