1.13 OPERATING SYSTEM
In the early days of computer use, computers were huge machines that were expensive
to buy, run, and maintain. The user at that time interacted directly with the hardware
through machine language. The software was required to perform basic tasks such
as recognising input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen,
keeping track of files on the disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as printers
and scanners. The search for such software led to the evolution of the modern-day
operating system. This software is loaded on top of the memory and performs all the
basic tasks.
An operating system is a collection of system programs that together control the
operation of a computer system. It is the most important part of any computer system.
It acts as an intermediary between a user and the computer hardware. The operating
system has two major objectives. Firstly, an operating system controls the computer’s
hardware. The second objective is to provide an interactive interface to the user and
interpret commands so that they can communicate with the hardware.
1.13.1 Need for Operating System
Some of the needs for an operating system are as follows:
Ð Managing Hardware: The prime objective of the operating system is to manage and
control the various hardware resources of a computer system. These hardware resources include the processor,
memory, disc space, and so on. It receives the user’s input from the keyboard and then outputs the data to the
monitor. The operating system supervises which input device’s data is requested to be processed and which
processed data is ready to be displayed on the output device. In addition to communicating with hardware, the
operating system provides an error handling procedure and displays an error notification.
Ð Providing an Interface: The operating system organises applications so that users can easily access, use, and store
them. When an application is opened, the operating system assists the application by providing the major part of
the user interface. It provides a stable and consistent way for applications to deal with the hardware without the
user having to know all the details of the hardware. If the program is not functioning properly, the operating system
again takes control, stops the application, and displays an appropriate error message.
Gary Arlen Kiddle is known as the father of OS.
Notes
Ð OS as a Platform for Application Programs: An operating system is needed as a platform to run application programs
that help users perform specific tasks easily. It acts as an interface between the computer and the user, and is
designed in such a manner that it operates, controls, and executes various applications on the computer.
Ð Managing Input-Output Unit: The operating system also allows the computer to manage its own resources, such
as memory, monitor, keyboard, printer, etc. Management of these resources is required for effective utilisation. The
operating system controls the various system input-output resources and allocates them to the users or programs
as per their requirements.
Ð Consistent User Interface: The operating system provides the user with an easy-to-use user interface, so the user
doesn’t have to learn a different UI every time and can focus on the content and be productive as quickly as possible.
The operating system provides templates and UI components to make the working of a computer really easy for
the user.

Do you know?
IEEE standard for LAN & MAN is IEEE 802-2002.
Characteristics of WAN
Some characteristics of WAN are as follows:
Ð The speed of data transfer is up to 150 Mbps.
Ð It connects large geographical areas at a lesser cost.
Ð In WAN, two or more networks are connected through a gateway that establishes connectivity between the protocol
used in one network with the other network.
Do you know?
The First WAN to be designed and developed was private network ARPANET in USA.
Difference between LAN, MAN and WAN
Some differences between Lan, Man and Wan are given below:
BASIS LAN MAN WAN
Range The range is from 1 to 10 km. The range is up to 100 km. The range is beyond 100 km.
Media used It uses guided media. It uses guided as well as
unguided media.
It uses unguided media.
Speed
It has high speed i.e., from 100
kbps.to 1000 kbps.
It is optimized for a larger
geographical area so, it is
slower than LAN.
It is meant for long-distance
communications, which may or
may not be provided by a public
pocket network. Therefore, it is
much slower in speed.
Cost It is cheaper in comparison to
others.
It is costly compared to
LAN & WAN.
It is quite expensive.
Equipment needed NIC, Switch and Hub. Modem and Router Microwave, Radio, Infra-red
laser.
Examples School, college and hospital City, Building Internet
2.4.4 VAN (Value Added Network)
A value-added network (VAN) is a private, hosted service that provides companies with a secure way to send and share
data with their counterparties. Value-added networks were a common way to facilitate electronic data interchange
(EDI) between companies. As the Internet created competition for this service with the advent of secure email,
VANs responded by expanding their service offerings to include things like message encryption, secure email, and
management reporting.

1. Why do we need a network?
Ans. Networking is necessary for the following reasons:
Resource sharing: All the computers in a network can share software (programs, data) and hardware devices (printer,
scanner, CD drive, etc.).
Reliability: If one computer fails, the other computer can perform the work without any delay. This is very important for
banking, air traffic control and other applications.
Communication medium: It is a powerful communication medium. Information can be easily exchanged between
computers in a network.
Scalable: This means, system performance can be increased by adding computers to a network.
2. What do you mean by hybrid topology?
Ans. The combination of various different topologies is known as hybrid topology. When two or more different topologies are
combined together is termed as hybrid topology and if similar topologies are connected with each other will not result in
hybrid topology.
3. What is Network Interface Unit?
Ans. A network interface unit is a device attached to each node and thus is connected to the server. It acts as a common interface
to establish connections between networked computers to connect to an outside network. NIU is popularly known as
Network Interface Card. A unique physical address is given to each Network Interface Card by its manufacturer; known as
Media Access Control (MAC) address. Each network interface unit has a unique node address.
It serves as a common interface for various other devices within a Local Area Network (LAN) or as an interface to allow
networked computers to connect to an outside network.
4. What is fiber optics?
Ans. Fiber Optic cables have more capacity and provide a higher speed of data transfers. In fiber optics cable, data are transferred
through electromagnetic waves. One cable of such type can support over 30,000 telephone lines at a time. Fiber optic cable
are expensive and fragile in nature. Using optical fibers, one can achieve a bandwidth of 20 GHz and a transmission rate up

Experts say that if you feel drowsy during the day, even during boring activities, you haven’t had enough sleep. If you
routinely fall asleep within five minutes of lying down, you probably have severe sleep deprivation, possibly even a
sleep disorder Microsleeps, or very brief episodes of sleep in an otherwise awake person, are another mark of sleep
deprivation. In many cases, people are not aware that they are experiencing micro-sleeps. The widespread practice
of “burning the candle at both ends” in Western industrialised societies has created so much sleep deprivation that
what was once considered really abnormal sleepiness is now almost the norm. Many studies make it clear that
sleep deprivation is dangerous.
