Continuing our learning of computer science, we're looking more detailed at that good friend, the processor, that brain of the computer, how it executes and how these different components kind of make it work.
00:14
And so talking about, you know, process tables and how we switch from one process to the next at the end of a time slice.
00:21
So we're talking about the dispatcher here.
00:24
So essentially when we think about the instructions here, it all starts with an interrupt at the end of the time slice.
00:29
So the interrupt signal is sent which transfers that control back to the dispatcher.
00:37
And the dispatcher goes to the process table and picks the ready process that has the highest priority.
00:43
And the scheduler is going to decide what that's going to be.
00:47
But the dispatcher is going to grab it.
00:49
Then it's going to restart the timer...
