program loading Explanation: "...loading programs. It is one of the essential stages in the process of starting a program, as it places programs into memory and prepares them for execution. Loading a program involves reading the contents of executable file, the file containing the program text, into memory, and then carrying out other required preparatory tasks to prepare the executable for running. Once loading is complete, the operating system starts the program by passing control to the loaded program code." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loader_(computing) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2013-06-12 19:34:15 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Swedish has gotten most of its computer terminology by calquing, so here too. |
