Explain two real life examples of batch processing & Multi- user operating system?
Answers
Answer:
Some examples of a multi-user OS are Unix, Virtual Memory System (VMS) and mainframe OS. ... The server allows multiple users to access the same OS and share the hardware and the kernel, performing tasks for each user concurrently.
Answer:
Explanation:
Batch processing is a technique in which an Operating System collects the programs and data together in a batch before processing starts. An operating system does the following activities related to batch processing −
- The OS defines a job which has predefined sequence of commands, programs and data as a single unit.
- The OS keeps a number a jobs in memory and executes them without any manual information.
- Jobs are processed in the order of submission, i.e., first come first served fashion.
- When a job completes its execution, its memory is released and the output for the job gets copied into an output spool for later printing or processing.
Example
- Printing is best example of Batch processing operating system.
- Execution of job one after another.
A multi-user operating system (OS) is a computer system that allows multiple users that are on different computers to access a single system's OS resources simultaneously, as shown in this figure appearing on your screen right now. Users on the system are connected through a network. The OS shares resources between users, depending on what type of resources the users need. The OS must ensure that the system stays well-balanced in resources to meet each user's needs and not affect other users who are connected. Some examples of a multi-user OS are Unix, Ubuntu, MacOS, Windows and all Linux based OS.
Example
- Multi-user operating systems were originally used for time-sharing and batch processing on mainframe computers. These types of systems are still in use today by large companies, universities, and government agencies, and are usually used in servers, such as the Ubuntu Server edition (21.04 LTS) or Windows Server 2019. The server allows multiple users to access the same OS and share the hardware and the kernel, performing tasks for each user concurrently.
