  4. BIOS interrupt call - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS_interrupt_call

A key element of the purpose of BIOS calls is abstraction - the BIOS calls perform generally defined functions, and the specific details of how those functions are executed on the particular hardware of the system are encapsulated in the BIOS and hidden ...
