DEFINITION OF OPERATING SYSTEM
An operating system is an
interface between the
hardware of a computer and
the user (program or human)
that facilitates the execution
of the other programs and the
access to hardware and
software resources.
Operating System as a Virtual Machine:
• An interface between the user and hardware
that hides the details of the hardware (e.g., I/O).
• Constructs higher-level (virtual) resources out of
lower-level (physical) resources (e.g., files).
• Definition: OS is a collection of software
enhancements, executed on the bare hardware,
culminating in a high-level virtual machine that
serves as an advanced programming
environment.
Virtual Machine = Software Enhancement = Extended
Machine = Abstract Machine = Layer = Level = Ring.

OVERVIEW
Memory A user program can only access its own logical memory. For
instance, it can't modify supervisor code. Depends on an address
translation scheme such as that shown here.
