System Execution
"System execution" refers to the process of a computer system actively carrying out the instructions of a program, essentially meaning the computer is running the program and performing the actions defined by its code, including interpreting instructions, performing calculations, and managing data to achieve a desired result.
Key points about system execution:
Interpretation of instructions:
The computer reads each instruction in the program and translates it into actions the hardware can understand.
Memory allocation:
During execution, the system allocates memory to store the program's data and instructions.
Central Processing Unit (CPU):
The CPU is the core component responsible for fetching, decoding, and executing instructions one by one.
Input/Output operations:
System execution may involve interacting with external devices like keyboard, mouse, or display to receive input or present results.
