changing an operating system......... An operating system is the program that manages all the application programs in a computer system. This also includes managing the input and output devices‚ and assigning system resources. Operating systems evolved as the solution to the problems that were evident in early computer systems‚ and coincide with the changing computer systems.

EVOLUTION OF THE OPERATING SYSTEM Operating systems as they are known today trace their lineage to the first distinctions between hardware and software. The first digital computers of the 1940s had no concept of abstraction; their operators inputted machine code directly to the machines they were working on. As computers evolved in the 1950s and 1960s however‚ the distinction between hardware such as the CPU and memory (or Core as it was called then) and the software that was written on top of it

April 9‚ 2012 Terance Carlson This paper will discuss three main operating systems‚ Windows‚ Linux‚ and OS X. All three of these operating systems have features which are unique unto themselves. Although there may be arguments as to which one of these three operating systems is better it really all comes down to what features are needed for each user. This paper will describe the features that each of these operating systems has to offer. First‚ Microsoft Windows. Microsoft began its dominance

Introduction about Linux Linux is an operating system that was initially created as a hobby by a young student‚ Linus Torvalds‚ at the University of Helsinki in Finland. Linus had an interest in Minix‚ a small UNIX system‚ and decided to develop a system that exceeded the Minix standards. He began his work in 1991 when he released version 0.02 and worked steadily until 1994 when version 1.0 of the Linux Kernel was released. Linux is developed and released under the GNU General Public License and

ROS (Robot Operating System) is a framework for robot software development‚ providing operating system-like functionality on top of a heterogenous computer cluster. ROS was originally developed in 2007 under the name switchyard by the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in support of the Stanford AI Robot (STAIR[1]) project. As of 2008‚ development continues primarily at Willow Garage‚ a robotics research institute/incubator‚ with more than twenty institutions collaborating in a federated

TYPES OF OPERATING SYSTEM Real-time Operating System: It is a multitasking operating system that aims at executing real-time applications. Real-time operating systems often use specialized scheduling algorithms so that they can achieve a deterministic nature of behavior. The main object of real-time operating systems is their quick and predictable response to events. They either have an event-driven or a time-sharing design. An event-driven system switches between tasks based of their priorities
