Directions for Questions 11-10: ,ead the passae and answer the )uestions that follow
on the basis of the information pro$ided in the passae. -icroprocessor is an electronic
computer Central %rocessin .nit /C%.) made from miniaturi0ed transistors and other
circuit elements on a sinle semiconductor Interated Circuit /IC). Before the ad$ent of
microprocessors, electronic C%.s were made from indi$idual small*scale Interated
Circuits containin the e)ui$alent of only a few transistors.
By interatin the processor onto one or a $ery few lare*scale Interated Circuit
packaes /containin the e)ui$alent of thousands or millions of discrete transistors), the
cost of processor power was reatly reduced. !he e$olution of microprocessors has been
known to follow -oore1s "aw when it comes to steadily increasin performance o$er the
years.
!his law suests that the comple2ity of an Interated Circuit with respect to minimum
component cost will double in about 34 months. &rom humble beinnins as the dri$ers
for calculators, the continued increase in power has led to the dominance of
microprocessors o$er e$ery other form of computer5 e$ery system from the larest
mainframes to the smallest handheld computers now uses a microprocessor at their
core. .As with many ad$ances in technoloy, the microprocessor was an idea wbose time
had come. !hree pro6ects aruably deli$ered a complete microprocessor at about the
same time7 Intel1s 8998, !e2as Instruments1 !-#3999, and :arrett Ai,esearch1s Central
Air Data Computer. .
A computer*on*a*chip is a $ariation of a microprocessor, which combines the
microprocessor core /C%.), some memory, and I;O /input;output) lines, all on one chip.
!he proper meanin of microcomputer is a computer usin a /number of)
microprocessor/s) as its C%./s), while the concept of the patent is somewhat more
similar to a micro controller.

Directions for Questions 1.-20: ,ead the passae and answer the )uestions that follow
on the basis of the information pro$ided in the passae. Dynamic "ink "ibraries
Windows pro$ides se$eral files called dynamic link libraries /D""s) that contain
collections of software code that perform common functions such as openin or sa$in a
file. When Windows application wants to use one of those functions or routines, the app
sends a messae to Windows with the names of the D"" file and the function. !his
procedure is known as callin a function. One of the most fre)uently used D""s is
Windows CO--D":.D"", which includes amon others, the functions to display &ile
Open, &ile #a$e, #earch, and %rint dialo bo2es.
!he application also sends any information the D"" function will need to complete the
operation. &or e2ample, a proram callin the Open &ile function in CO--D":.D""
would pass alon a file spec, such as <. < or <.DOC, to be displayed in the dialo bo21s
&ilename te2t bo2. !he application also passes alon a specification for the type of
information it e2pects the D"" to return to the application when the D""1s work is done.
!he application, for e2ample, may e2pect return information in the form of inteers,
true;false $alues, or te2t. Windows passes the responsibility for proram e2ecution to the
D"", alon with the parameters and the return information the D"" will need. !he
specific D"" is loaded into memory, and then e2ecuted by the processor. At this point the
D"", rather than the application, runs thins. !he D"" performs all the operations
necessary to communicate with Windows and, throuh Windows, with the %C1s hardware.
After the D"" function is complete, the D"" puts the return information into memory,
where it can be found by the application, and instructs Windows to remo$e the D""
routine from memory. !he application inspects the return information, which usually tells
whether the D"" function was able to e2ecute correctly. If the operation was a success,
the application continues from where it left off before issuin the function call. If the
operation failed, the application displays an error messae.
