1 A feature of a CPU which allows the masking of an interrupt request until the current sequential instruction has been completed 2 A feature of an adder circuit in the ALU section which allows the circuit to look ahead to see that all the generated arithmetic carrys are available for addition
If you look ahead, you think about what is going to happen in the future and perhaps make plans for the future. I'm trying to look ahead at what might happen and be ready to handle it
