操作系统简述（Operating system overview） I. computer software and operating system Powerful computers have been playing more and more important roles since they came into human life. With the development of the times, computers are closely related to peoples daily life. Can not help but say that the rapid development of computer software plays a key role here. It can be said that from the software, a computer can become junk. Computer software can be broadly divided into two categories: system software and application software. System software is used to manage computer resources and provide a unified platform for application software. The application software realizes the function that the user needs on the basis of the system software. Operation System is the most basic system software, which controls all the resources of the computer and provides the basis for application development. Two, the operating system was born The computer is composed of CPU, memory, disk, video card, sound card and so many components, and these devices of many manufacturers, variety, and different manufacturers of the same equipment while the complete same function, but the details are different. In order to properly manage and use these devices to implement specific applications, programmers must understand and master the working principles of various devices. And for the same device, because of different hardware vendors in the realization of the details of the difference, so that programmers once again into the complex hardware control abyss! We must find a way out of the sea so that programmers! Years of research and development have finally made this wish come true. The solution is to load a layer of software to manage the whole system on the basis of hardware. This software through the device driver to deal with computer hardware, through a series of functional modules of the hardware system is abstracted as a public interface, unified and open virtual machine, so that the programmer doe
