See Sleep, v. i.]
A natural and healthy, but temporary and periodical,
suspension of the functions of the organs of sense, as well
as of those of the voluntary and rational soul; that state of
the animal in which there is a lessened acuteness of sensory

[1913 Webster]
Note: Sleep is attended by a relaxation of the muscles, and
the absence of voluntary activity for any rational
objects or purpose. The pulse is slower, the
respiratory movements fewer in number but more
profound, and there is less blood in the cerebral
vessels. It is susceptible of greater or less intensity
or completeness in its control of the powers.
[1913 Webster]
Sleep of plants (Bot.), a state of plants, usually at

6. The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) |
sleep
vi.
1. [techspeak] To relinquish a claim (of a process on a multitasking
system) for service; to indicate to the scheduler that a process may be
deactivated until some given event occurs or a specified time delay
elapses.
2. In jargon, used very similarly to v. block; also in sleep on, syn.:
with block on. Often used to indicate that the speaker has relinquished a
demand for resources until some (possibly unspecified) external event: ?
They can't get the fix I've been asking for into the next release, so I'm
going to sleep on it until the release, then start hassling them again.?
|
7. The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018) |
sleep
1. (Or "block") When a process on a
multitasking system asks the scheduler to deactivate it until
some given external event (e.g. an interrupt or a specified
time delay) occurs.
The alternative is to poll or "busy wait" for the event
but this uses processing power.
Also used in the phrase "sleep on" (or "block on") some
external event, meaning to wait for it.
E.g. the Unix command of the same name which pauses the
current process for a given number of seconds.
2. To go into partial deactivation to save power.
