In loading programs into memory, what is the difference between load-time dynamic linking and run-..

Answer / guest

For load-time dynamic linking: Load module to be loaded is
read into memory. Any reference to a target external module
causes that module to be loaded and the references are
updated to a relative address from the start base address
of the application module.
With run-time dynamic loading: Some of the linking is
postponed until actual reference during execution. Then the
correct module is loaded and linked.
