Role Of Operating Systems
Role Of Operating Systems Fig 1 Role of OS Software that manages the computer's hardware and software resources is known as an operating system (OS). It enables software to communicate with a computer's hardware. The operating system handles interfacing with the hardware because most software isn't written to communicate with each specific piece of hardware. However, certain applications can interact with hardware directly. The early computers lacked an operating system. The entire code needed to run the computer had to be included in every programme. Each computer software became sophisticated and challenging to develop as a result. Since then, operating systems have been created, and one of their functions is to contain the computer-running code. This makes it simpler to create numerous apps for a shared operating system as opposed to for separate computers. The same fundamental tasks that keep your computer working smoothly are carried out by all operating systems, regar...
