Nintendo 64 controllerThe Nintendo 64 controller (model number: NUS-005) is the standard game controller for the Nintendo 64 home video game console. Manufactured and released by Nintendo on June 23, 1996, in Japan, in September 29, 1996 in North America, and March 1, 1997 in Europe, it is the successor to the Super Nintendo controller and is designed in an "M" shape and features 10 buttons, one analog "Control Stick" and a directional pad.

Système d'exploitation distribuéUn système d'exploitation distribué est une couche logicielle au dessus d'un ensemble de nœuds de calculs indépendants, communiquant par un système de réseau propre ou général. Chaque nœud comprend dans ce type de système d'exploitation un sous ensemble de l’agrégat global. Chaque nœud comporte son propre noyau servant à contrôler le matériel et les couches basses des communications en réseau. Des logiciels de plus haut niveau sont chargés de coordonner les activités collaboratives de l'ensemble de la grappe et des éléments de chacun de ces nœuds.
Interrupt latencyIn computing, interrupt latency refers to the delay between the start of an Interrupt Request (IRQ) and the start of the respective Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). For many operating systems, devices are serviced as soon as the device's interrupt handler is executed. Interrupt latency may be affected by microprocessor design, interrupt controllers, interrupt masking, and the operating system's (OS) interrupt handling methods. There is usually a trade-off between interrupt latency, throughput, and processor utilization.
