Operating Systems
-------------By Daniel-------------
Basic definition and what they do!
A operating system is a cheep program that manages all of the hardware and software on the computer , making sure both of them work properly together. Every computer has a operating system to do the basic tasks like recognizing when the keyboard is being pressed changing the picture on your monitor. Some of the better and bigger operating systems have to do other things like making sure all of the systems on the computer don't interfere with each other .
Types of operating systems
Windows xp
windows 7
Linux
Android
Apple ; they all have their advantages and disadvantages; there are a lot more operating systems but these are just a few of them and all of them have the same concept but all run in different ways. There are 4 essential managers of the operating systems:
The Process mgr
File mgr
memory mgr
device mgr
And the operating system acts as their boss , making sure that they all work in harmony and do not interfere with each other.
