interrupt handling is the process of handling a break or interrupt called by a program where as exception handling is for handling some exceptional conditions that'll occur when a program is running

What is a communications line between a device and the processor?
I believe it is interrupt request line.
What is difference between vectored and non vectored interrupts?
Vector interrupt --> when processor directly call the respective isr when interrupt occurs so, address of respective isr is usually save in register. Non interrupt Vector --> In this case when interrupt occurs the processor calls a generic isr and in generic isr uaer has to call respective isr by checking status register.

What is difference between exception handling in C and Java?
Easy: there is no exception-handling in C.
What is the difference between polling and vectored interrupt system with example?
i need compare between vectored interrupt system and polling
Difference between internal and external interrupt?
internal interrupt is synchronous with the program while external interrupts are asynchronous.
Difference between interrupt and subroutine in computer?
interrupt is a signal caused by I/O devices where as subroutine is a part of the program which is excuted rapidly
Difference between harware interrupt and internal interrupt?
A hardware interrupt is initiated from a hardware event, such as a byte received from a serial port. It is asynchronous to the running program, i.e. it can occur at any time. An internal, or software, interrupt is initiated by the running program, thus it is under the control of the running program. In the 8085, for instance, the RST instructions are software interrupts. Note, however, that external interrupts can initiate a software RST instruction, so the two events can appear to be the same kind of event. The biggest difference is the handling of the interrupt enable (IE) flag. In the hardware interrupt, the IE flag is turned off when processing the interrupt, and it is turned on right before the interrupt service routine executes the final return instruction. The software interrupt, on the other hand, has nothing to do with IE. As a result, the code must be able to tell the difference.

What is the difference between software and hardware interrupt?
The difference is that a hardware interrupt is a signal relayed to a system's CPU directly because of some piece of hardware, such as a keyboard or mouse. A software interrupt is a signal sent to indicate that something within a piece of software requires attention.
What is the difference between polling and vector interrupt service routine?
polling interrupt is alternative to the vector interrupt , it requires that the interrupt handler poll or send a signal to each device in turn in order to find out which one is sent the interrupt request.....
What is the difference between interruption and disruption?
disrupt is usually a conversation; interrupt can be anything (can be a conversation too). they are synonyms
What is the difference between context switch and process switch?
when ever an interrupt occurs, it saves the context of the program being executed & sets the PC to the starting address of the interrupt handling program. now after servicing the interrupt if the same process is resumed which was being interrupted then we will say a context switch has occurred.But imagine after servicing the interrupt if a new process is to be executed then some more work is required, that is it has to save some more information from the PCB to keep reference to resume its execution and we say process switch has occurred..!!

Runtime Error Cannot be Rectified but Runtime Exception can.
What is the difference between polling and vector interrupt system?
In a computer, a vectored interrupt is an I/O interrupt that tells the part of the computer that handles I/O interrupts at the hardware level that a request for attention from an I/O device has been received and also identifies the device that sent the request. A vectored interrupt is an alternative to a polled interrupt , which requires that the interrupt handler poll or send a signal to each device in turn in order to find out which one sent the interrupt request.
