operating system software is a basic needs of computer system. operating system software control , co-ordinate, manage overall operation of computer can’t perform any tasks operating system software create working environment to run other application software. operating system software is a interface between users and computer. examples of operating systems are windows vista, windows 98, 7, windows xp, etc.
- functions of operating system.
file management
security management
process management
memory management
time sharing
input output management.
- * types of operating system on the basis of mode of users.
- single user operating system -> a single user operating system allows one user to work at a time. the resource of the system namely the C. P. U. time and printing facilities are idle fill the users logs off.
this operating system are used for computers having only one terminal
examples of single user operating system are-> Pc-DOS, MS-DOS, etc.
- multi user operating system-> multi user operating system allows more than user acess to the computer at a time. access to the computer system is normally provide d via network, so that users access the computer remote using a terminal or other computer.
example of multi users operating system are-> UNIX, Bet wile, LINUX, etc.
- type on the basis of users interface.
- GUI : GUI stands for graphical user Interface based operating system. the operating system which follows WIMP Mechanism. GUI users windows based environment, graphical picture, symbols called icons and menus as command. the GUI provides a more convenient and user friendly means of communications between users and computer.
example-> windows operating system.
- CUI-> the text based operating system in which the user needs to type every command in order to vive the instrunction to the computer is called CUI operating system CUI operating system is not user friendly operating user needs to memorize all the commands and their syntax. there fore, these systems are slow, difficult to learn.
example -> M.S DOS, UNIX, etc [character user interface].
- differentiate between GUI and CUI
- the differences are:-
Graphical user Interface | Character user Interface |
1.GUI stands for Graphical user Interface.
|
1.CUI stands for character user interface. |
2. it is more user friendly operating system | 2. it is user friendly operating system. |
3.it is more common. | 3.it is less common. |
4.it user keyboard and mouse. | 4. it is uses only keyboard. |
5.Eg.: windows O. S. etc. | 5. Eg.: MS-DOS, UNIX, etc. |
windows operating system
- GUI allow the user to ineract with the system using windows, icon, menu and pointer to control the operating system. it seems that gone are the days of the character based interface of UNIX and DOS. due to GUI the user doesn’t need to remember commands or shortcut keys, based era. Any task in GUI CAN BE clicks by mouse.
features of GUI
- The interface -> Interface connection is made two elements of that they can work with each other or exchange information.
- Display of multiple window -> In a GUI multiple windows where different information can be display in the user screen at a same time.
- user friendly menu selection
- desktop
- use of mouse or light pen
- control panel
