EMBEDDED SYSTEM: The embedded system is a dedicated computer system embedded in another larger system that may be mechanical or electrical. An embedded system performs pre-defined tasks, usually with very specific requirements based on single or multi cores processors in form of microcontrollers or digital signal processors and FPGA. These processing components are integrated with components dedicated to handle electrical and mechanical interfacing. Most Embedded systems include operating system, but
transistor (smallest element in the digital system) or gate (group of transistors) for minimum power at the expense of the performance of the gate. Rabaey also states that transistor size is changed only if its place is not critical and it will not affect the whole circuit performance. Another Technique proposed by Pillai, Shin, & Arbor (2001) for power optimisation is Real-time Dynamic Voltage Scaling (RT-DVS) which it is dedicated for embedded computing systems. RT-DVS technique is exploiting the hardware
An operating system acts as an interface between hardware and application programs. We can say that it behaves like a program inside the system that allows the execution of application programs. It is a manager to handle the hardware that needs to make sure that computer operates correctly and no other user program can disturb its operation. The program that runs at all times in a computer and handles all the requests done by user is known as kernel. The operation system is responsible for allocation
Operating Systems Many people use computers without knowing how does it works. The main software when using the computer is the operating system. The operating system defines all the experience when using a computer it manages the hardware and software resources of the computer system, provides a way for applications to deal with the hardware without having to know all the details of the hardware, and it is the software that makes all the programs we use work, and it organizes and controls
system’s ability to support more than one process or program at the same time. Multiprocessing operating systems enable several programs to run concurrently. UNIX is one of the most widely used multiprocessing systems, but there are many others, including OS/2 for high-end personal computers and Windows NT for work groups. Multiprocessing systems are much more complicated than single-process systems because the operating system must allocate resources to competing processes in the most efficient manner
1. What is an Operating system? An operating system is a systems low level software which helps system to perform several function managing programs, controlling peripheral devices and scheduling tasks. Operating system can be classified into several types: • Multi-user: Allows several users to run program at same time. • Multiprocessing: Allows user to run a program at more than one CPU. • Multitasking: Allows more than one program to run at the same time. • Multithreading: Allow sub-programs to
Explain the purpose of operating systems (P2) The operating system whatever it may be (Windows or Linux) it is the most important program that runs on a computer. All general purpose computers require an operating system in order to run other programs. The Operating system performs essential basic tasks such as recognizing input from the keyboard, keeping track of files and their directories on the disk, the sending output to the display screen and the controlling of peripheral devices such as keyboards
Operating Systems A computer is useless without an operating system and without it every program would need the full hardware specification to run correctly and perform tasks. An operating system, also known as OS, is a software on the hard drive that allows the hardware of a computer to communicate and operate with the computer software. The OS is the most important software running on a computer because it handles the memory, processes and all of its software and hardware (Operating Systems).
virtual reality (VR). Following this, Virtual Reality Operating System (VROS) is described and discussed. The goals are then presented and finally the rest of the document is summarized. 1.1 Problem Statement The aim of this paper is to present the need of a Virtual Reality Operating System, with a focus on its core features. The core features are specifically focussed around how different hardware and software interact with the operating system. It is intended that important aspects of VROS will
Introduction Operating system is a most important and crucial software system which can help the computer to generate the computer programs runs, because a computer with no operating system will can’t perform well. So that the operating system can connected to input device keyboard or mouse, output device like screen or printer and controlling the disk drive. In the large system, operating system plays more useful situation in assist the different types of program and users to runs the system at the same

Besides that, we will take a deep look on how old operating system is being replaced by modern operating system in this fast developed technology era on evolving of operating system part. Here we will introduce a little bit about what is operating system
Identify the constituent parts of a total computer system ========================================================= Hardware - input and output units Backup storage; central processing unit; Software - applications package; Operating system; The main function of a computer system is to process data. When data has been processed and output it becomes information. The main stages of this procedure are: 1. The Input Stage - where data is put into the computer. 2. The Processing
Operating Systems Where would we be without operating systems? Technologically, we would be living in the Stone Age, computers would be useless without an operating system. What is an operating system? An operating system is computer instructions that coordinate all the activities of a computers’ hardware like, memory, storage devices, and printers (Gary B. Shelly). Operating systems work in two ways, by managing the hardware and software resources of the computer. Managing the hardware and software
Operating Systems Operating Systems 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. Three cycles are clear in the evolution of computers, the mainframe computers, minicomputers and microcomputers, and
use. Memory management is a complex interrelationship between processor hardware and operating system software. For virtual memory to work, a system needs to employ some sort of paging or segmentation scheme, or a combination of the two. Nearly all implementations of virtual memory divide a virtual address space into pages, which are blocks of contiguous virtual memory addresses. On the other hand, some systems use segmentation instead of paging. Segmentation divides virtual address spaces into
Q.1 a) What is meant by operating system? Define it in detail with the help of suitable examples. Answer: The 1960's meaning of an Operating system is "the programming that controls the Hardware". Not with standing, today, because of microcode we require an improved definition. We see an operating system as the program that make the equipment usable. In short, an operating system is the set of programs that controls a computer. A few illustrations of operating systems are UNIX, Mach, MS-DOS, MS-Windows
Cybersex has become available at any time and most of the technologies are free of charge, which as a result makes it easier for the general public to use. In addition, these programs and devices are in an evolutionary track in which at the beginning people may only communicate via the telegraph and now people have the capability to immerse themselves tactically as well as aurally and visually.

comparisons. In general, if we have list of n elements, we will have the following list, (n-1) + (n-2) …. + 2 +1 = (n-1) n / 2 comparisons. The complexity here based on quadratically(degree 2) in n. For Best Case: The time complexity of the best case scenario is O(n). For Worst Case: The time complexity of the best case scenario is O(n2). Note: The Bubble sort is not efficient, there are other sorting algorithms that are much faster. Assignment#1.2: Q- Discuss the Complexity of searching algorithms. Complexity
