In particular, MSI allows the device to write a small amount of interrupt-describing data to a special memory-mapped I/O address, and the chipset then delivers the corresponding interrupt to a processor. [1] [2] [3] A common misconception with MSI is that it allows the device to send data to a processor as part of the interrupt.

A network interface controller (NIC, also known as a network interface card, [3] network adapter, LAN adapter and physical network interface [4]) is a computer hardware component that connects a computer to a computer network. [5] Early network interface controllers were commonly implemented on expansion cards that plugged into a computer bus.
A standardized LAN interface that provides a framework for web-based interfacing and programmatic control. The LAN interface can include wireless connectivity, as well as physically connected interfaces. The interface supports peer-to-peer operation, as well as master/slave operation. Devices can optionally support IPv6.
Pictures and films created using computers. Usually, the term refers to computer-generated image data created with the help of specialized graphical hardware and software. It is a vast and recently developed area of computer science. computer network. Also data network. A digital telecommunications network which allows nodes to share resources.
Computer network engineering is a technology discipline within engineering that deals with the design, implementation, and management of computer networks. These systems contain both physical components, such as routers , switches, cables, and some logical elements, such as protocols and network services .
In MSI, each block contained inside a cache can have one of three possible states: Modified: The block has been modified in the cache.The data in the cache is then inconsistent with the backing store (e.g. memory).
In computer programming, instrumentation is the act of modifying software so that analysis can be performed on it. Generally, instrumentation either modifies source code or binary code. Instrumentation enables profiling: [1] measuring dynamic behavior during a test run.
