Answer:
A polling strategy is performed, which uses software to identify the highest priority resource.
Explanation:
- The process of a computer or controlling device waiting for an external device to check its readiness or status, which is typically done with low-level hardware, is known as polling.
- When a printer is connected to a computer through a parallel port, for example, the computer waits for the next character to be sent to the printer.
- When interrupts are unavailable, polling is typically used to identify I/O device events that require attention. On a regular basis, the CPU monitors each device for such occurrences. The drawback is the additional overhead associated with polling.
