2 Types of Operating System

This document summarizes the evolution of different types of operating systems: - Early systems used batch processing to service one job at a time on mainframe computers with punch cards and tape drives. - Multiprogramming systems allowed multiple processes in memory to improve CPU utilization when one process performed I/O. - Time-sharing systems furthered this by rapidly switching between processes to provide immediate interactive response for users. - Distributed, network, and real-time systems adapted operating systems for new environments like communicating processors, server-based networks, and systems requiring guaranteed response times.

Types of Operating System


Types of operating system
• Batch Processing Operating System
• Multiprogramming Operating System
• Multitasking or Time-sharing Operating
System
• Distributed Operating System
• Network Operating System
• Real-Time Systems
Mainframe system
• I/O devices punch card and tape drives
• User prepare a job and job consist of
program , input data, control instruction

• One job at a time

Memory layout
mainframe system
• Input is given by the punch cards and output
will also appear on the punch cards
• OS was very simple always present in the
memory
• Major task is to transfer control from one job
to another

Disadvantage
• Very slow
• CPU idle
• No user interaction
Batch Operating System

• Each user prepares his job and submits it to


the computer operator
• jobs with similar needs are batched
together and execute through the processor
as a group.
Batch Operating System
• Advantage
• Improve CPU utilization
• Disadvantage
• Memory limitation
• Lack of interaction between the user and the
job.
• CPU is often idle, because the speed of the
mechanical I/O devices is slower than the
CPU.
Multiprogramming Operating System
• the objective is to maximize CPU utilization
• Multiprogramming means more than one process in
main memory which are ready to execute
• Process required CPU time and I/O time
Multiprogramming Operating System
• The idea is that if a running process required
to perform some input-output or other event
operation.
• Then CPU switch the current running process
and pick other process from memory and
process it.
Multiprogramming Operating System
• Advantages
• Efficient memory utilization
• CPU is never idle, so performance increases
• Less waiting time response time
• Disadvantage:
• Memory management
• CPU scheduling
Multitasking or Time Sharing OS
• Time-sharing or multitasking is a logical
extension of multiprogramming.
• Processor's time which is shared among
multiple users simultaneously is termed as
time-sharing.
• the objective is to minimize response time.
Time sharing OS
• Multiple jobs are executed by the CPU by
switching between them, but the switches
occur so frequently.
• Thus, the user can receive an immediate
response.
Distributed Operating System
• Distributed systems use multiple central processors
to serve multiple real-time applications and multiple
users.
• Data processing jobs are distributed among the
processors accordingly.
Distributed Operating System
• The processors communicate with one
another through various communication lines
(such as high-speed buses or telephone lines).
These are referred as loosely coupled systems
or distributed systems.
Distributed Operating System
Advantages
• Resources Sharing: a user at one site may be
able to use the resources available at
another.
• load sharing: Reduction of the load on the
host computer.
• Reduction of delays in data processing.
• Reliable
Network Operating System
• NOS Runs on a server and provides the server
capability to manage data, users, groups, security,
applications, and other networking functions.

• The primary purpose of the network operating


system is to allow shared file and printer access
among multiple computers in a network, typically a
local area network (LAN), a private network or to
other networks.
Network Operating System
Advantages

• Centralized servers are highly stable.


• Security is server managed.
• Upgrades to new technologies and hardware
can be easily integrated into the system.
• Remote access to servers is possible
Disadvantages

• High cost of buying and running a server.


• Dependency on a central location for most
operations.
• Regular maintenance and updates are
required.
Real-Time Operating System
• A real-time system is defined as a data
processing system in which the time interval
required to process and respond to inputs is
so small that it controls the environment
Hard real-time systems
• Hard real-time systems guarantee that critical
tasks complete on time. In hard real-time
systems, secondary storage is limited or
missing and the data is stored in ROM. In
these systems, virtual memory is almost never
found.
Soft real-time systems
• Soft real-time systems are less restrictive.
• Soft real-time systems have limited utility
than hard real-time systems.
• For example, multimedia, virtual reality,
Advanced Scientific Projects, etc.
