1.3 User Interface 1.3 User Interface Operating system provides these facilities for the user: User interface User interface :interface to user/user program. CLI,GUI, Batch. Program creationProgram creation: editors,debuggers,other development tools. Program executionProgram execution: load a program into memory, run it,
terminate it. load, files, IO operations. read & write files & directories, create & delete them, search them, list file information, permission management.
Access to IO devices Access to IO devices : Read & writes. Controlled access to filesControlled access to files: protection mechanisms, abstraction
of underlying device. System access System access : Controls who can access the system. Error
detection & response:external,internal,software or hardware error(Errors may occur in the CPU & memory hardware, in I/O devices,in user program).Debugging facilities.
AccountingAccounting: Collect stats., load sharing ,for billing purposes.

User Interface (Cont.)User Interface (Cont.)
Command-Line Interface (CLI) :allows direct command entry
Sometimes implemented in the kernel, sometimes by a system program.
Sometimes multiple flavors implemented–shells. Primarily fetches a command from user &
executes it built-in commands or just names of programs ( -> extendible) Unix example (csh): rm file.txt
operating system Concepts -mahabadi
Silberschatz and Galvin 23
User Interface (Cont.)User Interface (Cont.)
Graphics User Interface (GUI): user-friendly desktop metaphor
IconsIcons represent files, programs, actions, etc. FoldersFolders represent directories. MenusMenus (pulldown/popup)show available commands. Various mouse buttonmouse button clicks over objects in the
interface cause various actions (e.g., provide information, show options, execute function, open directory)
Invented at Xerox PARC Batch Many systems now include both CLI & GUI interfaces
Microsoft Windows is GUI with CLI “command” shell Apple Mac OS X as “Aqua” GUI interface with UNIX
kernel underneath & shells available Solaris is CLI with optional GUI interfaces (CDE, Java
Desktop, KDE)

Technique for sharingsharing the CPU among runnable processes
– Process may be blockedblocked on I/O– Process may be blocked waitingwaiting for other
resource While one process is blocked, another
should be able to run Multiprogramming OS accomplishes

Multiprogrammed Batch Systems Multiprogrammed Batch Systems
If memory can hold several programsseveral programs, then CPU can switch to another one whenever a program is awaiting for an I/O to complete.
This is multitaskingmultitasking (multiprogramming).

Silberschatz and Galvin 32
ProcessesProcesses A programprogram in execution, An entityentity that can be assigned to and executed on a
processor, It is a unit of workunit of work. Multiprogramming ,time-sharing and real-time
transaction systems lead to the refinement of the concept of processprocess.
A process can be defined by its attributes and behaviors : it can be viewed as an Abstract Data TypeAbstract Data Type (ADT).
When instances of this ADT co-exist we have concurrent processingconcurrent processing.
Issues in concurrent processing :synchronization, mutual exclusion, deadlock, communication.
operating system Concepts -mahabadi
Silberschatz and Galvin 33
ProcessProcess
Introduced to obtain a systematic way of monitoringmonitoring and controllingcontrolling program execution
A process is an executable program with : associated datadata (variables, buffers…)
execution context: i.e. all the information that the CPU needs to execute the process : content of the processor registers
the OS needs to manage the process: prioritypriority of the process
the eventevent (if any) after which the process is waiting other data other data (that we will introduce later)

1.5 Memory management 1.5 Memory management
Requirements: Process isolationisolation, automaticautomatic allocation & maintenance, protection & access control, long-term storage facilities.
Virtual memory & file system facilities together satisfy all these requirements.
Virtual memoryVirtual memory allows programs to address the memory from a logical point of view without regard to the amount of main memory available.
FileFile: persistent storage for programs and data. Can view file also as an ADT? File concept makes
access control &protection convenient for the OS.

Silberschatz and Galvin 35
1.6 Protection & Security 1.6 Protection & Security When sharing resources, protectionprotection of the
systems & user resources from intentional as well as inadvertent misuse.
ProtectionProtection generally deals with access control. Example: Read only file
SecuritySecurity deals usually with threats from outside the system that affects the integrity & availability of the system and information with the system.
Example: username, password to access system. Data encryption to protect information.

Scheduling & resource management Scheduling & resource management
Scheduling & resource management is an Operations ResearchOperations Research (OR) problem.
Goals : Efficient use of resources, satisfy the service time requested by a process, say, in a real-time system & of course, fairness.
Short-term & long-term scheduling. QueuingQueuing is one of the basic operations
associated with scheduling. Interrupt is another important concept in the context of scheduling.

1.8 Brief History of OS First GenerationFirst Generation of computers had no OS: single-
user. All coding done directly in machine language , memory resident code (no other resources to manage)
Second GenerationSecond Generation has basic OS: batch processing . Read input (tape/cards), process, output to tape or print
Third GenerationThird Generation improved life: multiprogramming! Careful partitioning of memory space (4-12KB), drums & disks added for reading cards and spooling outputs (Simultaneous Peripherals Operations On-Line)
Time-sharing created several virtual machines
operating system Concepts -mahabadi
Silberschatz and Galvin 40
Brief History of OS (cont)
Fourth GenerationFourth Generation: PCs and workstations. Cheaper, faster, more user-friendly (Thank Macs for interfaces!)
UNIX precursor MULTICS (MULTIplexed Information & Computing Services) was the first “modern” OS. Bell+MIT+GE (MULTICS --> units --> Unix)
Berkeley improved on it: paging, virtual memory, file systems, signals (interrupts), networking!

OS - Microsoft World
Excellent marketing, some good products OSs started with DOSDOS (Disk OS), no nothing,
just very simple commands! Windows 3.1Windows 3.1 was a huge jump (based on
decades-old technology initially developed at Xerox then Macs)
Windows 95Windows 95 (released in 96/98/XP) improved tremendously the state-of-the-affairs for MS, but still unreliable
Windows NTWindows NT approaches Unix distributions, with more user-friendly interface.

Silberschatz and Galvin 42
OS - UNIX World Created at AT&T, re-written/improved by Berkeley ATT had majority control and good support (reliable
OS) OSF (Open SW Foundation, now Open Group) is a
consortium of several companies to standardize UNIX
Different subgroups (syscalls, shells, RT, etc) Standardization is with respect to interfaces and
not implementation of primitives. Impln is left to the implr
Modern applications are time constrained (tel, video, etc)

SpoolingSpooling
Overlap I/OOverlap I/O of one job with computation of another job. While executing one job, the OS:
–reads next job from card reader into a storage area on the disk (job queue).
–outputs printout of previous job from disk to printer.
Job poolJob pool – data structure that allows the OS to select which job to run next in order to increase CPU utilization (later has an experiment).

Time-Sharing Systems– Interactive ComputingTime-Sharing Systems– Interactive Computing
The CPU is multiplexed among several jobs that are kept in memory & on disk (the CPU is allocated to a job only if the job is in memory).
A job is swapped in & outswapped in & out of memory to the disk.
On-lineOn-line communication between the user & the system is provided; when the operating system finishes the execution of one command, it seeks the next “control statementcontrol statement” not from a card reader, but rather from the user’s keyboard.
On-line file system must be available for users to access data & code.
