I/O Techniques: Programmed vs Interrupt by jasmineflora2006 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document explains I/O techniques in computer architecture, focusing on Programmed I/O and Interrupt-Initiated I/O. Programmed I/O involves the CPU actively checking device readiness, which can waste time and hinder efficiency, while Interrupt-Initiated I/O allows devices to signal the CPU when ready, improving CPU utilization. Additionally, Direct Memory Access (DMA) is introduced as a method for transferring data directly between I/O devices and memory, reducing CPU involvement and enhancing performanc
