Question

give the types of operating system and explain ​

Answer 1

Answer:

An Operating System performs all the basic tasks like managing file,process, and memory.

Following are some of the most widely used types of Operating system.

Simple Batch System

Multiprogramming Batch System

Multiprocessor System

Desktop System

Distributed Operating System

Clustered System

Realtime Operating System

Handheld System

Simple Batch Systems

In this type of system, there is no direct interaction between user and the computer.

The user has to submit a job (written on cards or tape) to a computer operator.

Then computer operator places a batch of several jobs on an input device.

Multiprogramming Batch Systems

In this the operating system picks up and begins to execute one of the jobs from memory.

Once this job needs an I/O operation operating system switches to another job (CPU and OS always busy).

Jobs in the memory are always less than the number of jobs on disk(Job Pool).

Multiprocessor Systems

A Multiprocessor system consists of several processors that share a common physical memory. Multiprocessor system provides higher computing power and speed. In multiprocessor system all processors operate under single operating system. Multiplicity of the processors and how they do act together are transparent to the others.

Desktop Systems

Earlier, CPUs and PCs lacked the features needed to protect an operating system from user programs. PC operating systems therefore were neither multiuser nor multitasking. However, the goals of these operating systems have changed with time; instead of maximizing CPU and peripheral utilization, the systems opt for maximizing user convenience and responsiveness.

Distributed Operating System

The motivation behind developing distributed operating systems is the availability of powerful and inexpensive microprocessors and advances in communication technology.

Peer-to-Peer Systems

The growth of computer networks - especially the Internet and World Wide Web (WWW) – has had a profound influence on the recent development of operating systems. When PCs were introduced in the 1970s, they were designed for personal use and were generally considered standalone computers.

Clustered Systems

Like parallel systems, clustered systems gather together multiple CPUs to accomplish computational work.

Clustered systems differ from parallel systems, however, in that they are composed of two or more individual systems coupled together.

Real Time Operating System

It is defined as an operating system known to give maximum time for each of the critical operations that it performs, like OS calls and interrupt handling

Handheld Systems

Handheld systems include Personal Digital Assistants(PDAs), such as Palm-Pilots or Cellular Telephones with connectivity to a network such as the Internet. They are usually of limited size due to which most handheld devices have a small amount of memory, include slow processors, and feature small display screens.

hope this will be helpful to you

Explanation:

An Operating System performs all the basic tasks like managing file,process, and memory. Thus operating system acts as manager of all the resources, i.e. resource manager. Thus operating system becomes an interface between user and machine.

Types of Operating Systems: Some of the widely used operating systems are as follows-

1. Batch Operating System –

This type of operating system does not interact with the computer directly. There is an operator which takes similar jobs having same requirement and group them into batches.

Examples of Batch based Operating System: Payroll System, Bank Statements etc.

2. Time-Sharing Operating Systems –

Each task is given some time to execute, so that all the tasks work smoothly. Each user gets time of CPU as they use single system. These systems are also known as Multitasking Systems. The task can be from single user or from different users also.

Examples of Time-Sharing OSs are: Multics, Unix etc.

3. Distributed Operating System –

These types of operating system is a recent advancement in the world of computer technology and are being widely accepted all-over the world and, that too, with a great pace. Various autonomous interconnected computers communicate each other using a shared communication network.

Examples of Distributed Operating System are- LOCUS etc.

4. Network Operating System –

These systems run on a server and provide the capability to manage data, users, groups, security, applications, and other networking functions. These type of operating systems allow shared access of files, printers, security, applications, and other networking functions over a small private network.

Examples of Network Operating System are: Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Microsoft Windows Server 2008, UNIX, Linux, Mac OS X, Novell NetWare, and BSD etc.

5. Real-Time Operating System –

These types of OSs serves the real-time systems. The time interval required to process and respond to inputs is very small. This time interval is called response time.

Examples of Real-Time Operating Systems are: Scientific experiments, medical imaging systems, industrial control systems, weapon systems, robots, air traffic control systems, etc.
