Types of operating systems

Today there are lot of operating systems in the internet but actually they are only based on these main operating systems. What we see on internet is that windows is an OS, Linux is an OS but actually it is not really true. These are true only in simple understanding but when we explore computers more then we see there are lot of types of operating systems available in the market. These are written below......

  1. Batch Operating System
  2. Multi-programming OS.
  3. Time-sharing or multitasking operating systems
  4. Distributed operating System
  5. Network operating System
  6. Real Time operating System
  • Hard real--time systems
  • Soft real--time systems

Batch operating system:

  • These operating system can not interact directly with the computer.
  • Batch processing is a technique in which an Operating System collects the programs and data together in a batch before processing starts.

 

Multi-programming OS:

  • These type of OS are able to run multiple jobs simultaneously in the memory.
  • For it, memory is considered as a partitioned device, so that each job can reside in a partition.
 

Time-sharing or Multitasking operating systems:

  • Time-sharing is a technique which enables many people, located at various terminals, to use a particular computer system at the same time.
  • Time-sharing or multitasking is a logical extension of multi-programming.
 

Distributed operating System:

  • Distributed systems use multiple central
    processors to serve multiple real-time
    applications and multiple users.
  • Data processing jobs are distributed among the
    processors accordingly. 

Network operating System:

  • These Operating System runs on a server and provides the server the capability to manage data, user's, groups, security, applications, and other networking functions.
  • The main(primary) purpose of these kind of operating system is to allow shared file and printers access among multiple computers in a network, typically a local area network (LAN), a private network or to other networks.

Real Time operating System:

  • It can be defined as a data processing system, where the time interval required to processes and respond to inputs is so small, that it controls the environment.
  • The time taken by the system to respond to an input and display of required updated information is termed as the response time. So in this method, the response time is very less as compared to online processing. 

Hard real--time systems:

  • Hard real--time systems guarantee that critical tasks complete on time.
  • In hard real-time systems, secondary storage is limited or missing and the data is stored in ROM.

Soft real-time systems:

  • Soft real-time systems are less restrictive. A critical real-time task gets priority over other tasks and retains the priority until it completes.
  • Soft real-time systems have limited utility than hard real-time systems.

Know Operating Systems (Briefly)

OPERATING SYSTEM :     Today's lot of operating systems have arrived in the marketplace, but some OS gets failed because of their specifications or trends. Let me tell you what is an Operating System in short " an operating system is just a system software which help us to communicate with a machine using graphical or command line interface."     That's means when someone using his/her smartphone or computer or any type of device that's sure this device has an operating system and there is a proper way to use this device. Every Operating system has its own way or type of using it.    An OS is also making a vital role in the device because there are lot of things in a device which depends on the OS like bluetooth-connectivity, wireless-connections, display and many more things.   WORKING PROCESS :   Basically an OS is a system software so it contains all information about the hardware of this device.    Now...

Man in the middle attack types

Types Of Man-In-The-Middle Attacks : Today internet is one of the most essential thing in our normal life and it plays a vital role in every industries. Our demand of internet is growing day by day and it is not going to stop until now.  Man in the middle attack is one of the most common cyber-attack. In this attack an attacker act as a medium between the user and the server when a user send a request to a website for a particular data it can be in any form like login credentials, bank details etc. then server send data to user but when a person is interacting between user & server he/she can see all data. So today i will tell you how an attacker can perform a man in the middle attack ,so just read this blog careful................... 1⃣ IP spoofing:   Every device capable of connecting to the web has an online protocol (IP) address, which is analogous to the road address for your home.  By spoofing an IP address, an attacker can trick you into thinking you’re intera...

why visiting darkweb is not too easy?

DARK WEB :       Today we will talk about Dark-Web ,   the Dark-Web is a WWW(World wide web) content that exists on the internet but we need specific software, system configurations or authorized access to see or make changes in this content. Dark-web is just a part of the internet where 90% of internet data is available right now. The Dark-Web contents are not shown by normal search engines like Google , Bing or other search engines.          The dark-web include small peer to peer and friend to friend networks, as well as large, popular networks such as Tor, Freenet etc. operated by public organizations and individuals.  Users of the dark web refer to the regular web as clean net due to its unencrypted nature. The Tor dark web or onion browsing uses the traffic anonymization technique of onion-routing in the network's top-level-domain suffix .onion REAL WORLD:  If we talk about real world scenarios ...

A Digital Computer

 A digital computer is a digital system that performs various computational tasks. The word "Digital" implies that the information in the computer is represented by variables that take a limited number of discrete values. These values are processed internally by components that can maintain a limited number of discrete states. These discrete values are taken by the decimal digits 0 to 9.  The first electronic digital systems was developed at 1940s late, it was primarily only used for some numerical computations.  As we all know a digital computer uses binary number system & it can only understand a binary number. And a binary number has only 2 digits 0 & 1 . Let me tell you one more interesting thing is that a binary digit is called "bit" here. That means if we use 0 it means its a bit, and vise versa.  In a digital computer all information is only represented in group of bits. After using various programming techniques & some algorithms, these grou...
