  • The Operating System the Operating System (OS) Is the He Low-Level Software Which Handles the Interface to Peripheral Hardware
    The Operating System The Operating System (OS) is the he low-level software which handles the interface to peripheral hardware, schedules tasks, allocates storage, and presents a default interface to the user when no application program is running. Main functions: - 1. Provides instructions to display the on screen elements with which you interact. Collectively, these elements are known as the user interface. 2. Loads programs into the computers memory so that you can use them. 3. Co-ordinates how programs work with the CPU, RAM, keyboard, mouse, printer and other hardware as well as with software. 4. Manages the way information is stored on and retrieved from disks. The User Interface With an OS you see and interact with a set of items on the screen, the user interface. Graphical User Interface - Most current OS provide a graphical user interface (GUI). Apple computer introduced the first GUI with its Macintosh computer in 1984. GUIs are so called because you use a mouse (or other pointing device) to point at graphical objects on the screen. The Desktop - The coloured area that is seen on the screen. The pictures stand for items you might see on a real desktop such as “my computer”. Icons - Icons are pictures that represent the parts of the computer you work with. Software designers try to design the icons so that they look like what they represent. You interact with your computers resources by activating the icon that represent the resource. This is done by using a pointing device. The Taskbar and the Start Button (windows only) - When you start a program a button appears for it on the taskbar – an area at the bottom of the screen whose purpose is to display the buttons for the programs you are running.

Shaffer Submitted to the System Design and Management Program on January 9, 2015 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Engineering and Management ABSTRACT Many software companies build first-party hardware products due to the trend toward smaller, more highly-integrated devices, along with the fast pace of innovation in the technology industry. Building hardware products does not always lead to success and actually creates a financial risk for the company by significantly reducing profit margins as compared to the traditional profit margins to which large software companies are accustomed. Three specific strategies are observed which firms have used successfully in this area.

  • EOS: the Next Generation Extensible Operating System
    White Paper EOS: The Next Generation Extensible Operating System Performance, resiliency and programmability across the entire network are now fundamental business requirements for next generation cloud and enterprise data center networks. The need for agility and deployment at scale with regards to provisioning and network operations requires a new level of automation and integration with current data center infrastructure. The underlying design of the network operating system provides the architectural foundation to meet these requirements. Arista Networks has designed and delivered EOS (Extensible Operating System), the industry-leading, Linux- based network operating system, to address these requirements. EOS is a robust, programmable and innovative operating system, featuring a single software image that runs across the entire portfolio of Arista’s award-winning network switches as well as in a virtual machine instance (vEOS). This guarantees consistent operations, workflow automation and high availability, while significantly reducing data center operational expenses. This whitepaper discusses current network operating systems and explains how Arista’s EOS architecture uniquely support next generation data centers. arista.com White Paper Limitations of Legacy Network Operating Systems Traditional enterprise data center networks have long been susceptible to software crashes and unplanned outages. Multiple, different software releases across switch platforms made deploying new features and services a lengthy and time-consuming process. Combined with error-prone manual configuration, inevitably network uptime was compromised. At the core of this problem was the aging monolithic software that still runs on most of today’s networking equipment. This presents a fundamental limitation to very high network reliability. The reality is that a single bug or defect anywhere in these shared-memory systems exposes the entire network to disruption, since there is no mechanism for software fault containment.
