What is an Operating System? n A program that acts as an intermediary between a user of a computer and the computer hardware. n Operating system goals: F Execute user programs and make solving user problems easier. F Make the computer system convenient to use. n Use the computer hardware in an efficient manner. Operating System Concepts 1. 5 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Computer System Components 1. Hardware – provides basic computing resources (CPU, memory, I/O devices). 2. Operating system – controls and coordinates the use of the hardware among the various application programs for the various users. 3. Applications programs – define the ways in which the system resources are used to solve the computing problems of the users (compilers, database systems, video games, business programs). 4. Users (people, machines, other computers). Operating System Concepts 1. 6 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Abstract View of System Components Operating System Concepts 1. 7 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Operating System Definitions n Resource allocator – manages and allocates resources. n Control program – controls the execution of user programs and operations of I/O devices. n Kernel – the one program running at all times (all else being application programs).

Migration of Operating-System Concepts and Features Operating System Concepts 1. 9 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Mainframe Systems n Reduce setup time by batching similar jobs n Automatic job sequencing – automatically transfers control from one job to another. First rudimentary operating system. n Resident monitor F initial control in monitor F control transfers to job F when job completes control transfers pack to monitor Operating System Concepts 1. 10 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Memory Layout for a Simple Batch System Operating System Concepts 1. 11 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Multiprogrammed Batch Systems Several jobs are kept in main memory at the same time, and the CPU is multiplexed among them. Operating System Concepts 1. 12 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

OS Features Needed for Multiprogramming n I/O routine supplied by the system. n Memory management – the system must allocate the memory to several jobs. n CPU scheduling – the system must choose among several jobs ready to run. n Allocation of devices. Operating System Concepts 1. 13 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Time-Sharing Systems–Interactive Computing n The CPU is multiplexed among several jobs that are kept in memory and on disk (the CPU is allocated to a job only if the job is in memory). n A job swapped in and out of memory to the disk. n On-line communication between the user and the system is provided; when the operating system finishes the execution of one command, it seeks the next “control statement” from the user’s keyboard. n On-line system must be available for users to access data and code. Operating System Concepts 1. 14 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Desktop Systems n Personal computers – computer system dedicated to a n n single user. I/O devices – keyboards, mice, display screens, small printers. User convenience and responsiveness. Can adopt technology developed for larger operating system’ often individuals have sole use of computer and do not need advanced CPU utilization of protection features. May run several different types of operating systems (Windows, Mac. OS, UNIX, Linux) Operating System Concepts 1. 15 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Parallel Systems n Multiprocessor systems with more than on CPU in close communication. n Tightly coupled system – processors share memory and a clock; communication usually takes place through the shared memory. n Advantages of parallel system: F Increased throughput F Economical F Increased reliability 4 graceful degradation 4 fail-soft systems Operating System Concepts 1. 16 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Parallel Systems (Cont. ) n Symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) F Each processor runs and identical copy of the operating system. F Many processes can run at once without performance deterioration. F Most modern operating systems support SMP n Asymmetric multiprocessing F Each processor is assigned a specific task; master processor schedules and allocated work to slave processors. F More common in extremely large systems Operating System Concepts 1. 17 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Symmetric Multiprocessing Architecture Operating System Concepts 1. 18 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Distributed Systems (stop here) n Distribute the computation among several physical processors. n Loosely coupled system – each processor has its own local memory; processors communicate with one another through various communications lines, such as highspeed buses or telephone lines. n Advantages of distributed systems. F Resources Sharing F Computation speed up – load sharing F Reliability F Communications Operating System Concepts 1. 19 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Distributed Systems (cont) n Requires networking infrastructure. n Local area networks (LAN) or Wide area networks (WAN) n May be either client-server or peer-to-peer systems. Operating System Concepts 1. 20 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

General Structure of Client-Server Operating System Concepts 1. 21 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Peer-to-Peer n “Any network that relies on computing power at the edges (ends) of a connection rather than in the network itself. Any node is able to initiate or complete any supported transaction with any other node. ” from wikipedia, http: //en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Peer-to-peer n B-2 -B n File sharing services, napster, kazza etc. Operating System Concepts 1. 22 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Clustered Systems n Clustering allows two or more systems to share storage. n Provides high reliability and/or performance n Asymmetric clustering: one server runs the application while other servers standby. n Symmetric clustering: all N hosts are running the application.

Clustered Systems (continue) Operating System Concepts 1. 24 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Real-Time Systems n Often used as a control device in a dedicated application such as controlling scientific experiments, medical imaging systems, industrial control systems, and some display systems. n Well-defined fixed-time constraints. n Real-Time systems may be either hard or soft real-time. Operating System Concepts 1. 25 Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002

Real-Time Systems (Cont. ) n Hard real-time: F Secondary storage limited or absent, data stored in short term memory, or read-only memory (ROM) F Conflicts with time-sharing systems, not supported by general-purpose operating systems. n Soft real-time F Limited utility in industrial control of robotics F Useful in applications (multimedia, virtual reality) requiring advanced operating-system features.
