Aaron's Blog to think, to love, to study <<<Opration Procedure of Early Computers | 主页 | Comparisions>>> How did the term BOOTING come from 2004-11-06 A difficulty faced by even the earliest systems was initial startup . The CPU could only excute the program in the main memory which is volatile. Thus, the problem was how to get a program into the main memory when the power was turned on. The solution of the problem has been described by a metaphor--a person attempting to pull himself up by his own shoe laces or boot straps. Thus, initializing a system after power is turned on was wildly termed bootstraping and later simplely booting . aaronlee 发表于 2004-11-06 23:35 引用Trackback(0) | 编辑 Comments 发表评论最近更新 Condition Variables God Bless My Family My Lover My Friends How could P(s) be an indivisible operation Another Software Solutions of CS Problem Four conditions to provide mutual exclusion of Critical Sections MIT Barrel Shifter Booth Algorithm Autumn have a good rest :)
