An Operating System (OS) is an interface between a computer user
and computer hardware. An operating system is a software which
performs all the basic tasks like file management, memory
management, process management, handling input and output, and
controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and printers. An
operating system is the most important software that runs on a
computer. It manages the computer's memory and processes, as well
as all of its software and hardware. It also allows you to
communicate with the computer without knowing how to speak the
computer's language. Without an operating system, a computer is
useless. There are many functions those are performed by the
operating system. But the main goal of operating system is to
provide the interface between the user and the hardware. The
development of operating systems is ruled both by the evolution of
hardware architectures and evolving application requirements.
Furthermore, the rapid growth development of smartphones and
tablets has changed the software distribution ecosystem. This book
explores the operating computer and mobiles devices systems. With
regard to operating systems, the specifics advances discussed in
this book include the boot process method, the improvement of
global system performance for reliable starting, design method of
managing shared resources and services. Method, design and
implementation of security mechanism tool for countering the attack
of the operating system are also discussed in this book. Other
studies were explored in this literature to develop a new structure
to better manage software games, to improve human machine
interaction and development of embedded system.
