    program that runs on a computer?

    A. Application software
    B. System Software
    C. Operating System
    D. Computer Hardware
    C. Operating System
    Every general-purpose computer must have an operating
    system to run other programs.
     It manages all other programs on the machine.
     Every PC has to have one to run other applications or
    programs. It’s the first thing “loaded” upon turning on
    the PC.
    2. ______ is a program or set of programs that
    acts as an interface between a user and a
    computer hardware.

    A. Application software
    B. System Software
    C. Operating System
    D. Computer Hardware
    C. Operating System
    3. The following are the main goals of
    the OS (Operating System) except
    _______.
    A. To make the computer system easy to use.
    B. To make the use of computer hardware in efficient
    way.
    C. To make everything in the computer to work
    together in efficient and smooth way.
    D. To solve the computing problems of the computer
    users.
    D. To solve the computing
    problems of the computer
    users.
    3 main goals of the OS:
    1. To make the computer system easy to use.
    2. To make the use of computer hardware in efficient
    way.
    3. To make everything in the computer to work together
    in efficient and smooth way.
    4. The following are the basic tasks of
    the OS (Operating System) except
    _______.
    A. To manage resources and memory.
    B. To recognize input from the keyboard or mouse;
    and send output to the monitor.
    C. To keep track of files and directories on the disk.
    D. To control peripheral devices such as disk drives
    and printers.
    A. To manage resources
    and memory.
    3 basic tasks of the OS (Operating System):
     To recognize input from the
    keyboard or mouse; and send
    output to the monitor.
     To keep track of files and
    directories on the disk.
     To control peripheral devices such
    as disk drives and printers.
    5. ________ is a classification of OS
    which allows two or more users to run
    programs at the same time.
    A. MULTI-USER
    B. MULTIPROCESSING
    C. MULTITASKING
    D. REAL-TIME
    A. MULTI-USER
     Some operating systems permit hundreds or
    even thousands of concurrent users.
    6. Which classification of OS supports
    running a program on more than one
    CPU?
    A. MULTI-USER
    B. MULTIPROCESSING
    C. MULTITHREADING
    D. REAL-TIME
    B. MULTIPROCESSING
     many processes are simultaneously resident in memory, & execution
    switches between processes
    7. Which classification of OS allows
    different parts of a single program to
    run concurrently?
    A. MULTI-USER
    B. MULTIPROCESSING
    C. MULTITHREADING
    D. REAL-TIME
    C. MULTITHREADING
     The programmer must carefully design the program in such a way that all
    the threads can run at the same time without interfering with each other.

    Windows 7
    C. MULTITHREADING
    8. Which classification of OS allows
    more than one program to run
    concurrently?
    A. REAL-TIME
    B. MULTITASKING
    C. MULTITHREADING
    D. MULTI-USER
    B. MULTITASKING
     The ability to execute more than one task at the same time, a task being a program is called
    as multitasking.
     The terms multitasking & multiprocessing are often used interchangeably, although
    multiprocessing sometimes implies that more than one CPU is involved. In multitasking,
    only one CPU is involved, but it switches from one program to another so quickly that it
    gives the appearance of executing all of the programs at the same time.
     There are two basic types of multitasking: preemptive & cooperative.
     In preemptive multitasking, the OS parcels out CPU time slices to each program.
     In cooperative multitasking, each program can control the CPU for as long as it needs it. If
    a program is not using the CPU, however, it can allow another program to use it
    temporarily.
     OS/2, Windows 95, Windows NT, & UNIX use preemptive multitasking, whereas
    Microsoft Windows 3.x & the MultiFinder use cooperative multitasking.
    B. MULTITASKING
    9. Which classification of OS responds
    to input instantly?

    A. MULTI-USER
    B. MULTIPROCESSING
    C. MULTITHREADING
    D. REAL-TIME
    D. REAL-TIME
     Real time systems are used in time critical environments where data must be
    processed extremely quickly because the output influences immediate decisions.
     Real time systems are used for space flights, airport traffic control, industrial
    processes, sophisticated medical equipment, telephone switching etc.
     RTOS are also used to control machinery, scientific instruments, and industrial
    systems.
    10. When you turn on the power to a PC, the first
    program that runs by OS is a set of instructions
    kept in the computer's ________.

    B. ROM (Read-Only Memory)

     It checks to make sure everything is functioning properly.


     It checks the CPU, memory, and basic input-output systems (BIOS) for errors.
     Once successful, the software will begin to activate the computer's
    disk drives.
     It then finds the first piece of the operating system: the bootstrap loader
    11. The __________ is a small program that has a
    single function: It loads the
    operating system into memory and allows it to
    begin operation.
    A. Disk Drive
    B. Bootstrap Loader
    C. Windows Desktop
    D. Memory
    B. Bootstrap Loader
     The bootstrap loader sets up the small driver programs that
    interface with and control the various hardware.
     It sets up the divisions of
    • memory
    • user information, and
    • applications.
     It establishes the data structures needed to communicate within
    and between the subsystems and applications of the computer.
     Then it turns control of the computer over to the operating system.
    12. Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh
    operating systems are GUI’s. GUI means

     GUI interfaces have standards that are usually the same or similar in
    all systems and applications.
     Standards apply to:
    • Pointers and pointing devices
    • Icons, desktops, windows and menus
    13. GUI uses the following to represent some
    object or function except ______.

    A. Words
