INDEX

The library procedure， possibly written in assembly language, typically putsthe system call number in a place where the operating system expects it, such as aregister （step 5）. Then it executes a TRAP instruction to switch from user mode tokemel mode and start execution at a fixed address within the kernel （step 6）. TheTRAP instruction is actually fairly similar to the procedure call instruction in thesense that the instruction following it is taken from a distant location and the return address is saved on the stack for use later.
Nevertheless, the TRAP instruction also differs from the procedure call instruction in two fundamental ways. First, as a side effect, it switches into kernelmode. The procedure call instruction does not change the mode. Second, ratherthan giving a relative or absolute address where the procedure is located, the TRAPinstmction cannot jump to an arbitrary address. Depending on the architecture, iteither jumps to a single fixed location or there is an 8 bit field in the instruction giving the index into a table in memory containing jump addresses, or equivalent.

文艺复兴以降，源远流长的科学精神和逐步形成的学术规范，使西方国家在自然科学的各个领域取得了垄断性的优势-也正是这样的传统，使美国在信息技术发展的六十多年间名家辈出、独领风骚。在商业化的进程中，美国的产业界与教育界越来越紧密地结合，计算机学科中的许多泰山北斗同时身处科研和教学的最前线，由此而产生的经典科学著作，不仅擘划了研究的范畴，还揭示了学术的源变，既遵循学术规范，又自有学者个性，其价值并不会因年月的流逝而减退。近年，在全球信息化大潮的推动下，我国的计算机产业发展迅猛，对专业人才的需求日益迫切。这对计算机教育界和出版界都既是机遇，也是挑战；而专业教材的建设在教育战略上显得举足轻重。在我国信息技术发展时间较短的现状下，美国等发达国家在其计算机科学发展的几十年间积淀和发展的经典教材仍有许多值得借鉴之处。因此，引进一批国外优秀计算机教材将对我国计算机教育事业的发展起到积极的推动作用，也是与世界接轨、建设真正的世界一流大学的必由之路。
