Different types of Operating Systems:
1. Real-time Operating System : It is a
multitasking operating system that aims at executing
real-time applications. Real-time operating systems
often use specialized scheduling algorithms so that
they can achieve a deterministic nature of behavior.
The main object of real-time operating systems is their
ne quick and predictable response to events.
2. Multi-user and Single-user Operating Systems :
The operating systems of this type allow a
d multiple user to access a computer system
concurrently. Time-sharing system can be classified
as multi-user systems as they enable a multiple user
access to a computer through the sharing of time.
Single-user operating systems, as opposed to a multi-
user operating system, are usable by a single user at a
time.
3. Multi-tasking and Single-tasking Operating
Systems: When a single program is allowed to run at
a time, the system is grouped under a single-tasking
system, while in case the operating system allows the
execution of multiple tasks at one time, it is classified
as a multi-tasking operating system.
4. Distributed Operating System: An operating
system that manages a group of independent
computers and makes them appear to be a single
computer is known as a distributed operating system
5. Embedded System : The operating systems
designed for being used in embedded computer
systems are known as embedded operating systems
They are designed to operate on small machines like
PDAs with less autonomy.
