Time taken (t1) to prepare the data i.e. to transfer the data from I/O device to the device buffer. After this an interrupt signal will be generated indicating the CPU to carry out the further process ie. to take the data from buffer to memory(in case we write something to mm). This transferring also needs some time t2. total time = t1+t2 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
