Introduction

A computer system consists of


hardware system programs application programs

What is an Operating System


It is an extended machine
Hides the messy details which must be performed Presents user with a virtual machine, easier to use

It is a resource manager
Each program gets time with the resource Each program gets space on the resource

History of Operating Systems (1)

Early batch system


bring cards to 1401 read cards to tape put tape on 7094 which does computing put tape on 1401 which prints output

System Calls (1)


A stripped down shell:
while (TRUE) { type_prompt( ); read_command (command, parameters) if (fork() != 0) { /* Parent code */ waitpid( -1, &status, 0); } else { /* Child code */ execve (command, parameters, 0); } } /* repeat forever */ /* display prompt */ /* input from terminal */ /* fork off child process */ /* wait for child to exit */

/* execute command */
