Grade 1 Computers Quiz: Embedded Systems in C

What is memory management in embedded systems?

• The process of creating software applications

• Process of allocating and deallocating memory resources

• The process of managing computer peripherals

• The process of designing computer hardware

How do embedded systems handle interrupts?

• Through parallel processing

• Using interrupt service routines (ISRs)

• By ignoring the interrupts

• Using object-oriented programming

Why is memory management important in embedded systems?

• To waste memory and slow down the system

• To efficiently utilize the limited memory resources and ensure optimal performance.

• To use as much memory as possible and reduce performance

• To make the system less efficient and unreliable

What is an interrupt in embedded systems?

• A signal that temporarily stops the main program to execute a special function or process.

• A type of memory storage

• A type of computer virus

• A type of input device

How are interrupts prioritized in embedded systems?

• By the size of the interrupt handler function

• Based on their importance and urgency

• Randomly

• Based on the time of day
