Question

What is Hardware Management?​

Answer 1

All the devices that together make the computer system are controlled by the operating system. Installation of each new device is registered with the operating system. For example, to use a new nrinter, you first need to install it properly on the computer. Communication i.e. data and signal transfer among the devices is also handled by the operating system. For example, when you give the command to print a file, the data loaded in the memory is sent to the printer along with details ike number of copies, number of pages, colour, page size etc. by the operating system to print.
