It manages the computer's memory and processes, as well as all of its software and hardware. It also allows you to communicate with the computer without knowing how to speak the computer's language. Without an operating system, a computer is useless. There are several different computer programs running at the same time, and they all need to access your computer's central processing unit (CPU), memory, and storage. The operating system coordinates all of this to make sure each program gets what it needs. Functions of Operating System 4, Operating system provides security to the user data and prevents unauthorized access. 2. System performance is boosted with the help of the operating system. 3. Various applications or tasks and the number of users doing the tasks are accounted for by operating system. 4, The computing system shows some errors due to the changes in the hardware and these errors are logged in the operating system. 5. Operating system helps to collaborate and coordinate the interpreters, compilers, and assemblers. .. The main memory Is managed by operating system. Operating system does the process scheduling . Operating system does device management easily. . Operating system organizes the file system into directories so that the files can be easily searched and used whenever needed. 10. Operating system checks whether the system is ready to work. 11. The loading and executing of the programs are done with the help of operating system. 2 aneTypes of Operating Systems Operating systems usually come pre-loaded on any computer you buy. Most People use the operating system that comes with their computer, but it's possible to upgrade or even change operating systems. The three most common operating ‘systems for personal computers are Microsoft Windows, MacOS, and Linux. Modem operating systems use a graphical user interface, or GUI. A GUI lets you use your mouse to click icons, buttons, and menus, and everything is clearly displayed on the screen using a combination of graphics and text. Figure 1 Microsoft Windows GUI Each operating system's GUI has a different look and feel, so if you switch to a different operating system it may seem unfamiliar at first. However, modern operating systems are designed to be easy to use, and most of the basic principles are the same. Microsoft Windows Microsoft created the Windows operating system in the mid-1980s. There have been many different versions of Windows, but the most recent ones are Windows 10 (released in 2015), Windows 8 (2012), Windows 7 (2009), and Windows Vista (2007). Windows comes pre-loaded on most new PCs, which helps to make it the most popular operating system in the world.Figure 2. Microsoft Windows GUI Macintosh Operating System Macintosh Operating System is a line of operating systems created by Apple. It comes preloaded in all Macintosh computers, or Macs. Some of the specific versions include Mojave (released in 2018), High Sierra (2017), and Sierra (2018). According to Stat Counter Global Stats, MacOS users account for less than 410% of global operating systems—much lower than the percentage of Windows users. One reason for this is that Apple computers tend to be more expensive. However, many people do prefer the look and feel of MacOS over Windows.Linux Linux is a family of open-source operating systems, which means they can be modified and distributed by anyone around the world. This is different from proprietary software like Windows, which can only be modified by the company that owns it. The advantages of Linux are that it is free, and there are many different distributions—or versions—you can choose from. ‘According to Stat Counter Global Stats, Linux users account for less than 2% of global operating systems. However, most servers run Linux because it's relatively easy to customize. Sales ir I htt nave Figure 4. Linux GUI File Management File management is one of the basic and important features of operating system. Operating system is used to manage files of computer system. All the files with different extensions are managed by operating system. A file is collection of specific information stored in the memory of computer system. File management is defined as the process of manipulating files in comput- er system, it management includes the process of creating, modifying and deleting the files.The following are some of the tasks performed by file management of operating system of any computer system: 1. It helps to create new files in computer system and placing them at the specific locations. 2. Ithelps easily and quickly in locating these files in computer system. 3. It makes the process of sharing the files among different users very easy and user friendly. 4. It helps to stores the files in separate folders known as directories. These directories help users to search file quickly or to manage the files according to their types or uses. 5. It helps the user to modify the data of files or to modify the name of the file in the directories. taaeer | { Directory 2 | 1 Casi foe] Cet Diet Figure 6. Hierarchy of the Storage in an Operating System The above figure shows the general hierarchy of the storage in an operating system. In this figure the root directory is present at the highest level in the hierarchical structure. It includes all the subdirectories in which the files are stored. Subdirectory is a directory present inside another directory in the file storage system. The directory base storage system ensures better organization of files in the memory of the computer system.INDEPENDENT ACTIVITY 1 Directions: Give the definition of the following word.
