Abstract
A method and apparatus for an innovative, object-oriented hardware independent interface to the external world. The interrupt services are part of an overall IO model providing an object base IO system that supports dynamic configuration of the system. Object processing is architected into even the lowest lever routines in the preferred embodiment of the invention. This includes an object oriented design all the way down to interrupt processing abstractions. These interrupt abstractions provide an architecturally sound framework for the dynamic installation, configuration, and timely execution of interrupt handlers.
