-: OPERATING SYSTEM (OS) :-
Introduction:

An operating system (OS) is a vital component of computer systems, acting as a


bridge between users and hardware. It manages resources, enables application
execution, and ensures smooth interaction between software and hardware. In this
assignment, we explore the functions, types, and importance of operating systems in
modern computing.

Main Body:

1. Functions of an Operating System:

Process Management: Controls and schedules processes to improve efficiency and


multitasking.

Memory Management: Allocates memory to applications and manages virtual


memory.

File System Management: Organizes, stores, and retrieves data on storage devices.

Device Management: Coordinates input and output devices through drivers.

Security: Protects against unauthorized access and ensures data integrity.

User Interface: Provides interfaces like CLI and GUI for user interaction.

2. Types of Operating Systems:

Batch Operating System: Executes jobs in batches with minimal user interaction.

Time-Sharing Operating System: Allows multiple users to use the system


simultaneously.

Distributed Operating System: Connects multiple computers to share resources


efficiently.

Real-Time Operating System: Processes data instantly, used in critical systems like
robotics.

Mobile Operating System: Designed for mobile devices (e.g., Android, iOS).

Embedded Operating System: Found in embedded systems like ATMs and smart
TVs.
3. Examples of Operating Systems:

Windows: Popular for desktops, user-friendly interface.

Linux: Open-source, widely used in servers and development.

macOS: Apple's OS known for design and performance.

Android: Most common mobile OS globally.

IOS: Apple's mobile operating system with strict security and smooth UI.

4. Importance of Operating Systems:

Acts as a communication layer between hardware and software.

Helps in efficient use of system resources.

Enables running multiple applications at once.

Ensures system security and stability.

Conclusion:

Operating systems are the backbone of computing systems, enabling functionality,


multitasking, and user interaction. As technology advances, OSs continue to evolve
to support newer devices and applications, making them an essential area of study
in computer science.

-: NETWORKING :-
Introduction:

Computer networking is the practice of connecting computers and other devices to


share resources and information. It forms the foundation of modern communication,
allowing data exchange through wired or wireless media. This assignment explores key
concepts, types, and components of networking.

Main Body:

1. What is a Computer Network?

A computer network is a group of interconnected devices that communicate and share


resources like files, internet access, printers, and more. Networks can be as small as
two devices or span across the globe like the internet.
2. Types of Computer Networks:

LAN (Local Area Network): Covers a small area like a home, office, or school.

WAN (Wide Area Network): Covers large geographical areas, like the internet.

MAN (Metropolitan Area Network): Spans a city or campus.

PAN (Personal Area Network): Connects devices close to a person (e.g., Bluetooth).

3. Network Topologies:

Bus Topology: All devices are connected to a single central cable.

Star Topology: All devices connect to a central hub or switch.

Ring Topology: Devices form a closed loop.

Mesh Topology: Every device connects to every other device.

Hybrid Topology: A combination of two or more topologies.

4. Network Devices:

Router: Connects different networks and routes data.

Switch: Connects devices within a LAN and forwards data based on MAC address.

Modem: Converts digital data to analog for transmission and vice versa.

Access Point: Provides wireless connectivity.

Firewall: Protects the network from unauthorized access.

5. Network Protocols:

TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol): Core protocol of the internet.

HTTP/HTTPS: Used for accessing web pages

FTP (File Transfer Protocol): Used for transferring files.

DNS (Domain Name System): Translates domain names to IP addresses.


6. Importance of Networking:

Enables resource and file sharing.

Supports communication via email, chat, and video calls.

Facilitates centralized data management and backup

Increases efficiency and productivity in organizations.

Conclusion:

Networking plays a crucial role in connecting people and systems across the globe. As
technology continues to evolve, so do networking standards, protocols, and devices,
making it a dynamic and essential field in IT and com
