    Introduction

     An operating system is an integrated set of programs that is


    used to manage the various resources and overall operations
    of a computer system.

     It is designed to support the activities of a computer


    installation.

     Thus, like a manager of a company, an operating system is


    responsible for the smooth and efficient operation of the entire
    computer system.
    History
     The 1940's - First Generations
    The earliest electronic digital computers had no operating
    systems.
     The 1950's - Second Generation
    The General Motors Research Laboratories implemented the
    first operating systems in early 1950's for their IBM 701.
     The 1960's - Third Generation
     The systems of the 1960's were also batch processing systems,
    but they were able to take better advantage of the computer's
    resources by running several jobs at once.
    What is an Operating System?
     An Operating System, or OS, is low-level software that
    enables a user and higher-level application software to
    interact with a computer’s hardware and the data and other
    programs stored on the computer.

     An OS performs basic tasks, such as recognizing input from


    the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping
    track of files and directories on the disk, and controlling
    peripheral devices such as printers.
    Operating System
    Types of Operating System
     Batch Processing
     Real-time operating systems
     Time Sharing
     Single-User, Single task
    Batch Processing
     Jobs together with input data are fed
    into the system in a Batch

     The job are then one after another

     No job can be started until previous


    job is competed
    Real-time operating systems

     Real-time operating
    systems are used to
    control machinery,
    scientific instruments and
    industrial systems.
    Time Sharing
    Single-user, single task
    Special features of OS
     Multi Tasking
     Multi programming
     Parallel précising
     Buffering
     Spoofing
    Functions….

     Automatic transition from job to job as directed by special


    control statements.
     Maintenance of internal time clock and log of system usage
    foe all users.
     Facilities easy communication between the computer system
    and computer operator.
    Functions
     Processor management i.e. assignment of processors to
    different tasks being performed by the computer system.

     Memory management, that is, allocation of main memory and


    other storage areas to the system programs as well as user
    programs and data.
    Advantages
     It enables users to run their own computer without any
    knowledge of coding.

     It consists of programs and data that runs on computers,


    managing computer hardware resources and providing
    services for various application software.
    Disadvantages

     If any problems affected in OS, you may lose all the contents
    which have been stored already

     Unwanted user can use your own system


    CONCLUSION

     Operating System performs a wide variety of jobs.

     The functions of operating system are transparent to the user.

     This shows that operating system is very important part of


    computer.
