  2. 0:20hi hello there
  3. 0:21welcome to introduction to operating
  4. 0:24systems
  5. 0:26on this video lecture
  6. 0:28we will be talking about
  7. 0:30what operating systems do
  8. 0:33computer system organization
  9. 0:35computer system architecture
  10. 0:38the operating system operations
  11. 0:41resource management
  12. 0:43security and protection
  13. 0:45virtualization
  14. 0:47distributed systems
  15. 0:49kernel data structures
  16. 0:51computing environments and
  17. 0:54the free or libre and open source
  18. 0:57operating systems
  19. 1:00at the end of this video lecture you
  20. 1:02should be able to describe
  21. 1:04the general organization of a computer
  22. 1:06system
  23. 1:07and the role of interrupts
  24. 1:10second describe the components in a
  25. 1:13modern multi-processor computer system
  26. 1:17third illustrate the transition
  27. 1:20from user mode to kernel mode
  28. 1:23next would be discuss how operating
  29. 1:26systems are used in various computing
  30. 1:28environments
  31. 1:30and
  32. 1:31provide examples of free and open source
  33. 1:35operating systems
  34. 1:38let's get started
  35. 1:40let's start with the definition of an
  36. 1:43operating system
  37. 1:44so what is an operating systems
  38. 1:48so i have here different versions or
  39. 1:50different uh
  40. 1:53operating systems
  41. 1:54vendors like windows from microsoft
  42. 1:57you've got linux
  43. 1:58all right so red hat mac os
  44. 2:01freebsd solaris and so on so we have a
  45. 2:05lot of operating systems so what is the
  46. 2:07role of an operating systems in the
  47. 2:10computer system
  48. 2:12so basically an operating system is
  49. 2:14defined as a program
  50. 2:16that acts as the intermediary between
  51. 2:18the user of a computer and the computer
  52. 2:21hardware
  53. 2:22so basically
  54. 2:24the operating system is the translator
  55. 2:28okay between the
  56. 2:29device
  57. 2:30or the hardware
  58. 2:32and the user
  59. 2:34okay
  60. 2:35so these are the operating system goals
  61. 2:37so execute programs
  62. 2:39and make solving user problems easier
  63. 2:43second make the computer systems
  64. 2:46convenient to use
  65. 2:48third
  66. 2:49use the computer hardware in an
  67. 2:50efficient manner
  68. 2:52now imagine your computer without an
  69. 2:54operating systems
  70. 2:56how can you run how can you execute and
  71. 2:59how can you play
  72. 3:00okay applications on your
  73. 3:02computer okay so how can you navigate
  74. 3:06onto the computer systems
  75. 3:08and how would you manage
  76. 3:10the resources in the computer systems
  77. 3:14so basically
  78. 3:16that's what an operating system is
  79. 3:18if we are going to look at the
  80. 3:21technical side of it operating system is
  81. 3:24the one who manages the resources of the
  82. 3:26computer
  83. 3:28okay so we will go into a deep
  84. 3:30discussion of those roles
  85. 3:34next would be computer system structure
  86. 3:37so basically your computer systems
  87. 3:41is divided into four components so
  88. 3:44you've got hardware you've got operating
  89. 3:46system application programs
  90. 3:49and users
  91. 3:52now for the hardware hardware is any
  92. 3:54tangible components
  93. 3:56in a computer system
  94. 3:57so it provides basic computing resources
  95. 4:01now in operating system you will often
  96. 4:04heard the word resources resources is
  97. 4:07anything that can be shared to other
  98. 4:09applications to other programs on your
  99. 4:11system
  100. 4:13it includes the cpu time
  101. 4:15the memory the i o devices all of those
  102. 4:19can be shared
  103. 4:21next would be the operating system so
  104. 4:23operating system controls and
  105. 4:25coordinates use of hardware among
  106. 4:27various applications and users
  107. 4:30so that's what i'm saying earlier the
  108. 4:31operating system is the one who manages
  109. 4:34the resources
  110. 4:36if we are going to have an analogy with
  111. 4:39the traffic okay with the car traffic
  112. 4:42on the road
  113. 4:43so the operating system is a traffic
  114. 4:45controller or traffic enforcer
  115. 4:48okay
  116. 4:49so next would be application programs
  117. 4:52it defines the ways in which the system
  118. 4:55resources are used to solve the computer
  119. 4:58problems of the users
  120. 5:01so word processors compilers web
  121. 5:03browsers database systems video games
  122. 5:06all of those are application programs
  123. 5:09and this application programs needs a
  124. 5:11lot of resources
  125. 5:13okay for instance games
  126. 5:15games are often consuming a lot of
  127. 5:18memory resources
  128. 5:22so the operating system is the one who
  129. 5:23is responsible for the allocation of
  130. 5:26those resource to these application
  131. 5:27programs
  132. 5:29okay so if the application program needs
  133. 5:32to run
  134. 5:33it defines
  135. 5:35or it asks for the amount of memory from
  136. 5:38the operating systems
  137. 5:41okay
  138. 5:42and
  139. 5:42the last one would be the users
  140. 5:45users pertains to people or the end user
  141. 5:48people wear but sometimes it is also a
  142. 5:51machine
  143. 5:52okay or another computer
  144. 5:56now let's talk about the abstract view
  145. 5:59of components of the computer systems
  146. 6:02okay so basically we have users
  147. 6:04application programs operating systems
  148. 6:08and computer hardware
  149. 6:09so we could say that computer
  150. 6:12is a hardware
  151. 6:14plus the operating system
  152. 6:16plus apps
  153. 6:18plus users
  154. 6:20so os serves as interface between the
  155. 6:23hardware
  156. 6:24and the apps and users
  157. 6:27so os provides services for apps and
  158. 6:30users
  159. 6:32os manages resources
  160. 6:34so government model it doesn't produce
  161. 6:36anything
  162. 6:38okay so debates about what is included
  163. 6:42in the operating system so just the
  164. 6:43kernel
  165. 6:44or everything the vendor ships is that
  166. 6:47it consider the distinction between
  167. 6:49system applications and
  168. 6:51third-party or user apps
  169. 6:55right so basically the user interacts
  170. 6:58with the application program traversing
  171. 7:02through the operating systems and to the
  172. 7:03hardware
  173. 7:05no user can communicate directly with
  174. 7:08the computer hardware
  175. 7:11okay so it should pass us through
  176. 7:13application programs and operating
  177. 7:15systems
  178. 7:19what operating systems do
  179. 7:21so depends on the point of view
  180. 7:24so users want convenience
  181. 7:26is of use in good performance
  182. 7:29especially to those who are a gamer
  183. 7:32and those who are rendering videos on
  184. 7:34their computer
  185. 7:36they don't care about resource
  186. 7:37utilization especially if you have a lot
  187. 7:39or ample amount of resources to use
  188. 7:43so but shared computers such as
  189. 7:44mainframe or mini computer must keep all
  190. 7:48users happy
  191. 7:49operating system is a resource allocator
  192. 7:52and control program
  193. 7:54making efficient use of hardware and
  194. 7:56managing execution of user programs
  195. 8:00so users of dedicated systems such as
  196. 8:02the workstations have dedicated
  197. 8:04resources
  198. 8:06but frequently used shared resources are
  199. 8:08from the servers
  200. 8:10so mobile devices like smartphones and
  201. 8:13tablets
  202. 8:15are resource poor
  203. 8:17optimized for usability and battery life
  204. 8:21so mobile user interfaces such as
  205. 8:23touchscreen
  206. 8:24voice recognitions
  207. 8:26those are
  208. 8:29under mobile devices
  209. 8:30or tablets
  210. 8:32so some computers have little or no user
  211. 8:34interface such as the embedded computers
  212. 8:37in devices and automobiles so it runs
  213. 8:40primarily without user intervention
  214. 8:47defining an operating system
  215. 8:49so the term os covers many roles
  216. 8:51because of myriad design and uses of oss
  217. 8:56so it might be present in toasters
  218. 8:59through ships
  219. 9:01spacecrafts
  220. 9:02okay gay machines
  221. 9:04tvs and industrial control system
  222. 9:07so born when fixed used computers for
  223. 9:10military became more general purpose
  224. 9:13and needed resource management and
  225. 9:15program control
  226. 9:17okay
  227. 9:19now let us define an operating system
  228. 9:22based on the perspective of an i.t
  229. 9:24people
  230. 9:26so no universally accepted definition
  231. 9:28for the operating system
  232. 9:30okay so everything a vendor ships
  233. 9:33when you order an operating system is a
  234. 9:35good approximation
  235. 9:37but virus wealthy okay
  236. 9:40so the one program running at all times
  237. 9:42on the computer is what you call kernel
  238. 9:45kernel is part of the operating system
  239. 9:49so everything else is either
  240. 9:52a system program or an application
  241. 9:54program
  242. 9:55okay so system program
  243. 9:58ships with the operating system
  244. 10:00but not part of the
  245. 10:02kernel application program
  246. 10:05all programs not associated with the
  247. 10:08operating systems
  248. 10:10so
  249. 10:11one definition that i would give with
  250. 10:13the operating system is that
  251. 10:15my operating system is my resource
  252. 10:18allocator
  253. 10:20when you say resource allocator it
  254. 10:22manages
  255. 10:23and allocates resources
  256. 10:26i would also define an operating system
  257. 10:28as the one who controls the program
  258. 10:31controlling program controls the
  259. 10:33execution of user programs and
  260. 10:35operations of i o devices
  261. 10:39some define an operating system as
  262. 10:41kernel
  263. 10:42the one program that is running at all
  264. 10:44times
  265. 10:45or else being in application programs
  266. 10:48okay so today's oss for general purpose
  267. 10:52and mobile computing also include
  268. 10:54middleware
  269. 10:55this is a setup software
  270. 10:57or software frameworks that provide
  271. 11:00additional services or additional
  272. 11:01services to applications
  273. 11:03developers such as databases multimedia
  274. 11:07graphics etc
