Processes
A program is a static set of instructions
A processes is the execution of a program, which changes state over time.

Processes Switching
Lecture 16: Processes Intro to IT
Interrupts Signals to the CPU Often generated by timing circuits CPU reacts by jumping to appropriate memory location
Dispatcher selects a ready process resets timing circuit starts process
CPUs often designed to switch process states efficiently

Software `Programs should be able to do anything!’ (???)
Programs should be able to do anything reasonable
What is reasonable?
Not changing OS, not deleting other processes from memory, not playing with other people’s things, …
Lecture 16: Processes Intro to IT
Interrupts Provide mechanism to switch processes
CPU doesn’t have to wait for I/O transfers
Switching leads to faster throughput
`Save document’ means CPU does something else while the save takes place
