What Does ICB Stand For?
ICB stands for Interrupt Control Block
ICB, or Interrupt Control Block, is a data structure used in computer systems to manage and coordinate interrupts. It contains essential information related to interrupt handling, including the status, priority, and associated routines for each interrupt. The ICB enables efficient processing of interrupts by providing a centralized reference for the operating system or hardware to determine the appropriate response to various interrupt requests, thereby enhancing system responsiveness and stability.
