We are in the midst of a long and potracted debate over wether an interrupt handler can be made into a single process in BSD. In other words, wether we can make a device and its associated code/memory a process which interrupts the main process when appropriate. (The code/memory would be part of code we wrote to interpret sensory data(the memory) and based on that send messages to the Brain) I need information and anywould be much appreciated. --Kostadis <cs031057@cs.brown.edu>
