-Examples of monitors were IBM's Fortran Monitor System, SOS (Share Operating System),
and finally IBSYS for IBM's 709x systems in 1960
MULTIPROGRAMMING - CHESTER
a rudimentary form of parallel processing in which several programs are run at the same
time on a uniprocessor. Since there is only one processor, there can be no true
simultaneous execution of different programs. Instead, the operating system executes part of
one program, then part of another, and so on. To the user it appears that all programs are
executing at the same time.
The time sharing system were developed to provided an interactive use of the computer
system. A time shared system uses CPU scheduling and multiprogramming to provide each
user with a small portion of a time shared computer, this short period of time during that the
user gets attention of the CPU is known as a time slice or a quantum.
Great diversity marked the beginning of parallel architectures and their operating systems.
This diversity has since been reduced to a small set of dominating configurations: symmetric
multiprocessors running commodity applications and operating systems (UNIX and Windows
NT) and multicomputers running custom kernels and parallel applications. Additionally, there
is some (mostly experimental) work done towards the exploitation of the shared memory
paradigm on top of networks of workstations or personal computers.

DISTRIBUTED SYSTEM - LOUIE
A distributed system is a system whose components are located on different networked
computers, which communicate and coordinate their actions by passing messages to one
another.[1] The components interact with one another in order to achieve a common goal.
Three significant characteristics of distributed systems are: concurrency of components, lack
of a global clock, and independent failure of components. Examples of distributed systems
vary from SOA-based systems to massively multiplayer online games to peer-to-peer
applications.
Distributed computing also refers to the use of distributed systems to solve computational
problems. In distributed computing, a problem is divided into many tasks, each of which is
solved by one or more computers, which communicate with each other via message passing
1. Client-server—Clients contact the server for data, then format it and display it to the
end-user. The end-user can also make a change from the client-side and commit it
back to the server to make it permanent.
2. Three-tier—Information about the client is stored in a middle tier rather than on the
client to simplify application deployment. This architecture model is most common for
web applications.
3. n-tier—Generally used when an application or server needs to forward requests to
additional enterprise services on the network.
4. Peer-to-peer—There are no additional machines used to provide services or
manage resources. Responsibilities are uniformly distributed among machines in the
system, known as peers, which can serve as either client or server.
