  • For hardware functions such as input and output and memory allocation, the operating system acts as an intermediary between application programs and the computer hardware, although the application code is usually executed directly by the hardware, but will frequently call the OS or be interrupted by it. Operating systems are found on almost any device that contains a computer—from cellular phones and video game consoles to supercomputers and web servers. Examples of popular modern operating systems for personal computers are Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.

  • An Operating System (AKA OS) is the basic software that a device runs on. It is created in order to use the hardware installed on the device it runs. All other application programs use the installed operating system to run, without it, they could not run either. Google has created the Android operating system, which is what runs on most phones. They have also created the operating system for Chromebooks, which are computers. All computer hardware that exists requires an operating system, although most do not have a user interface like computers, phones, and tablets have.
  • An operating system, or OS, is a program which directly interacts with a computer's hardware in order to run other programs. Operating systems are required for most modern computers to run. The OS typically loads immediately after the boot loader. In some earlier computers, however, the boot loader was built into the operating system.

  • Operating systems are the program that runs your computer and other programs on top of it. The OS is responsible for handling system resources and managing disk and memory access, as well as timing and memory protection.
  • An Operating System (OS) is an interface between hardware and user which is responsible for the management and coordination of activities and the sharing of the resources of the computer that acts as a host for computing applications run on the machine.

  • Scratch has a long history of users attempting to program their own operating systems. Several have been very successful, reaching the Scratch Website's Front Page. The projects' complexity have grown over time, as new blocks and such were released, along with other features that allowed programmers to perform astonishing feats. One such feature was the fact that a user could download a project and import it into their downloaded operating system, very much like purchasing software and installing it in reality. Galleries have been provided for users, allowing them to download many projects from one place.

  • An Operating System (OS) is a set of computer programs that manage the hardware and software resources of a computer. Popular Operating Systems include Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. An operating system performs basic system tasks such as controlling input and output devices, facilitating networking, managing file systems, managing applications, allocating memory and prioritizing system requests. Modern operating systems provide a graphical user interface (GUI) shell where the user can interact with the OS, launch applications and manage their computer system. Most OSs still have a command line interpreter, and some (notably Linux) are often operated without a GUI to conserve resources. Networked computers can often be managed remotely, although there are security implications to this. User interactions with an OS include installing and managing devices, installing and managing applications, saving and managing files and configuring the OS itself. Application interactions include allocating memory, accessing processing time, accessing files and negotiating network access.

This relieves application programs from having to manage these details and makes it easier to write applications. Almost all computers (including handheld computers, desktop computers, supercomputers, video game consoles) as well as some robots, domestic appliances (dishwashers, washing machines), and portable media players use an operating system of some type. Some of the oldest models may, however, use an embedded operating system that may be contained on a compact disk or other data storage device. Applications access these services through application programming interfaces (APIs) or system calls. By invoking these interfaces, the application can request a service from the operating system, pass parameters, and receive the results of the operation. Users may also interact with the operating system with some kind of software user interface (SUI) like typing commands by using command line interface (CLI) or using a graphical user interface (GUI, commonly pronounced “gooey”). For hand-held and desktop computers, the user interface is generally considered part of the operating system. On large multi-user systems like Unix and Unix-like systems, the user interface is generally implemented as an application program that runs outside the operating system (Whether the user interface should be included as part of the operating system is a point of contention). Older operating systems may run on DOS. The most common types of operating system is Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Common contemporary operating systems include BSD, Darwin (Mac OS X), Linux, SunOS (Solaris/OpenSolaris), and Windows NT (XP/Vista/7/8/10). While servers generally run Unix or some Unix-like operating system, embedded system markets are split amongst several operating systems, although the Microsoft Windows line of operating systems has around 90% of the client PC market.

  • When it became clear in the early 1980s that computers were becoming more larger, more expensive and less powerful as time went on, it became necessary for the phone company to replace them with something to operate the switchboard. People were unusable because they were also expensive to hire, slow, and prone to failure. Therefore, a solution needed to be found. A tragic breakthrough occurred when several AT&T engineers, while on vacation at Yellowstone Park, saw the famous geyser "Old Faithful" go off, as it does, at exactly 2:00 PM everyday. From this, they realized that purely natural systems can function more reliably than computers or humans ever could, immediately telegraphed the main office to inform them of their new discovery. It was then left to the more hard-working, no-vacation-taking engineers at AT&T to realize this plan. The first practical laboratory tests used the Water Cycle and the Motor Cycle, but these were deemed failures because the former kept short-circuiting the phone equipment, and the latter attracted an unruly, leather-clad crowd to the research center. Ultimately, it was determined that a real model would have to be worked out mathematically first, and only then brought into the laboratory. No real progress was made in modeling strategies until 1983, when super model Cindy Crawford came into work wearing a dress depicting the Dirac Equation divided by six. The result was applied to the flight paths of carrier pigeons, resulting in the greatest breakthrough in the field.
  • An operating system enables the computer user to start multiple programs and work with them through task switching without having to quit one program to start the next. It also provides the user with an integrated environment where the user need not consider how the peripheral units interacts with the programs, where peripheral units can be for example hard disk, screen, keyboard, mouse and network. From a more general point of view, the operating system starts and coordinates the execution of many programs, background processes as well as user applications, and enables all these programs to communicate seemlessly, to avoid the intellectual burden of the user starting all programs manually and switching between them according to an elaborate plan in order to maintain system integrity and perform his/her job task using the computer.
