* Operating systems timeline

Operating systems and programs using the customary binary prefixes show this as 9. 5625 MB.

Operating systems such as Microsoft Windows that display hard drive sizes using the customary binary prefix " GB " ( as it is used for RAM ) would display this as 279. 4 GB ( meaning 279. 4 × 1024 < sup > 3 </ sup >, or 279. 4 ×).

Operating systems include many standard Software libraries, and applications are often distributed with their own libraries.

Operating systems may adopt one of many different scheduling strategies, which generally fall into the following categories:

Though typically accessed by a DBMS through the underlying Operating system ( and often utilizing the operating systems ' File systems as intermediates for storage layout ), storage properties and configuration setting are extremely important for the efficient operation of the DBMS, and thus are closely maintained by database administrators.

Disk Operating System ( specifically ) and disk operating system ( generically ), most often abbreviated as DOS, refer to an operating system software used in most computers that provides the abstraction and management of secondary storage devices and the information on them ( e. g., file systems for organizing files of all sorts ).

Mature versions of the Commodore, SWTPC, Atari and Apple home computer systems all featured a disk operating system ( actually called ' DOS ' in the case of the Commodore 64 ( CBM DOS ), Atari 800 ( Atari DOS ), and Apple II machines ( Apple DOS )), as did ( at the other end of the hardware spectrum, and much earlier ) IBM's System / 360, 370 and ( later ) 390 series of mainframes ( e. g., DOS / 360: Disk Operating System / 360 and DOS / VSE: Disk Operating System / Virtual Storage Extended ).

Though typically accessed by a DBMS through the underlying Operating system ( and often utilizing the operating systems ' File systems as intermediates for storage layout ), storage properties and configuration setting are extremely important for the efficient operation of the DBMS, and thus are closely maintained by database administrators.

Operating systems ported to the architecture include SGI's IRIX, Microsoft's Windows NT ( until v4. 0 ), Windows CE, Linux, BSD, UNIX System V, SINIX, QNX, and MIPS Computer Systems ' own RISC / os.

Operating systems can be found on almost any device that contains a computer — from cellular phones and video game consoles to supercomputers and web servers.

POSIX ( ), an acronym for " Portable Operating System Interface ", is a family of standards specified by the IEEE for maintaining compatibility between operating systems.

In 1919, shortly after the Morkrum company obtained their patent for a start-stop synchronizing method for code telegraph systems, which made possible the practical teleprinter, Kleinschmidt filed an application titled " Method of and Apparatus for Operating Printing Telegraphs " which included an improved start-stop method.

Operating systems have memory areas that are pinned ( never swapped to secondary storage ).
