History of Operating Systems

all Operating Systems

The operating system is an interface between the user of the computer by the computer hardware. Before any operating system, people only use a computer using analog signals and digital signals ( please search for yourself what the analog signals and digital signals ) . Along with the development of knowledge and technology , there are now a variety of operating systems with the advantages of each. To better understand the operating system then you should need to know first some basic concepts regarding the operating system itself.

Definition of the operating system in general is managing all the resources contained in the computer system and provides a set of services (system calls) to users to facilitate and comforting application and use of resources computer system.

According to Tanenbaum, the operating system has developed very rapidly, which can be divided into four generations:

First generation (1945-1955)
The first generation was the beginning of the development of electronic computing system as a replacement for mechanical computing system, it caused people to calculate the speed of humans is limited and very easy to make a faux pas, mistakes and even errors. In this generation there is no operating system, the computer system was given instructions that must be done in person.

Second Generation (1955-1965)
The second generation introduced a Batch Processing System, the Job is done in a series, then this generation consecutive. In executed in a computer system is not equipped operating system, but some of the functions of existing operating systems, for example, the operating system is functioning FMS (Fortran Monitoring System) and IBSYS. So this second computer generation is the first generation of the system operation.

Third Generation (1965-1980)
On the development of next-generation operating system was developed to serve many users at once, in which users communicate via an interactive on-line terminal to the computer, the operating system into a multi - user (in use many users at once) and multi - programming (serving many programs at once).

Fourth Generation (Post 1980 )
Today, the operating system used for computer networks where users aware of the existence of the computers that are connected to each other. At this time, the user also has comforted with a Graphical User Interface that is interface-based computer graphics are very comfortable, at this time also began the era of distributed computing where computations are no longer centered on one point, but broken in many computer in order to reach the performance better.
