Sistema Operativo Sistema Operativo L.I. Francisco Ruiz Sala Instituto de Astronomía UNAM Definición: Un Sistema Operativo del acrónimo en ingles OS (Operating System) es un programa o programas que gestiona los recursos de hardware y provee servicios y las aplicaciones, una herramientas de software que permiten la interacción con el núcleo o Kernel (Nucleo) y este es el encargado de enviar e interpretar las instrucciones en código de máquina. Evolución histórica 1ª Generación (1945 -1955) Estas máquinas estaban construidas por medio de tubos de vacío. Eran programadas en lenguaje de máquina. 2ª Generación (1955 – 1965) Las características de la segunda generación son las siguientes: Están construidas con circuitos de transistores. Se programan en nuevos lenguajes nemotécnicos como el Ensamblador. 3ª Generación (1965 – 1975) Las características de esta generación fueron las siguientes: Su fabricación electrónica está basada en circuitos integrados. Su manejo es por medio de los lenguajes de control de los sistemas operativos, Lenguajes de Alto Nivel. 4ª Generación (1975 – 1990) Aquí aparecen los microprocesadores que es un gran adelanto de la microelectrónica, son circuitos integrados de alta densidad y con una velocidad impresionante. Las microcomputadoras con base en estos circuitos son extremadamente pequeñas y baratas, por lo que su uso se extiende al mercado industrial. Aquí nacen las computadoras personales, Lenguajes Interpretes y de Alto nivel. Tipos de SO: -Monoprocesos, Multiprocesos, Monousuarios y multiusuarios Kernel: El núcleo o Kernel (de la raíz germánica Kern, núcleo, hueso) es la parte fundamental del sistema operativo, y se define como la parte que se ejecuta en modo privilegiado (conocido también como modo núcleo). Es el principal responsable de facilitar a los distintos programas acceso seguro al hardware de la computadora o en forma básica, es el encargado de gestionar recursos, a través de servicios de llamada al sistema. Importancia: • Su función principal es la de darnos las herramientas necesarias para poder controlar nuestra computadora y poder hacer uso de ella de una maneras más fácil, es decir, actúa de intermediario entre el usuario y el hardware • El SO tiene muchos recursos que pueden ser necesarios para solucionar un problema: espacio de memoria, dispositivos de entrada y salida, espacio de almacenamiento de archivos etc. Definiciones Hardware: Elementos electrónicos de una computadora Software: Programas o información Firmware: Programa nativo del equipo que funciona como primera base después del hardware. Sistema Operativo o OS (operating system) es un programa o conjunto de programas de un sistema informático que gestiona los recursos de hardware y provee servicios a los programas de aplicación de software, ejecutándose en modo privilegiado respecto de los restantes (aunque puede que parte de él se ejecute en espacio de usuario). Sistema Operativo Como funciona el Kernel de un SO: Sistemas Operativos en la actualidad: Pros y Contras de Windows, Mac OS X y Linux Windows: El sistema operativo de Microsoft tiene la mayor compatibilidad entre sus competidores, así como el soporte técnico más ágil dado a sus funciones reconocida por profesionales globales desde casi cualquier operación. Desventajas: Tiene el mayor potencial de obtener virus en su sistema operativo, sin embargo esto puede evitarse al bajar un programa de anti-virus. Asimismo, Windows toma la mayor memoria de la computadora para su operación y es el segundo más costoso. Mac OS X: El sistema operativo de Apple cuenta con la mejor seguridad, con un porcentaje muy pequeño que de pueda obtener virus o programas dañinos a la computadora. Desventajas Entre los tres es el más costoso y su compatibilidad se limita a los dispositivos Apple. Asimismo, no hay tantos programas que se pueden manejar desde aparatos Mac y mucho menos videojuegos. Linux: Este sistema gratuito también cuenta con la menor probabilidad de obtener virus o malware, con una variedad de distribuciones disponibles. Desventajas: Es el sistema operativo más complicado, y al Fuente: https://www.developpez.com/actu/240119/OS-desKtop- igual que Max OS X, existen muy pocos programas Linux-a-plus-de-3-pourcent-de-parts-de-marche-selon- StatCounter-et-Net-Applications-si-l-on-inclut-Chrome-OS-parmi- compatibles con Linux y con Mac o Windows.

A given ISA may be implemented with different microarchitectures.[1] Implementations might vary due to different goals of a given design or due to shifts in technology.[2] Computer architecture is the combination of microarchitecture and instruction set design. Relation to instruction set architecture The ISA is roughly the same as the programming model of a processor as seen by an assembly language programmer or compiler writer. The ISA includes the execution model, processor registers, address and data formats among other things. The Intel Core microarchitecture microarchitecture includes the constituent parts of the processor and how these interconnect and interoperate to implement the ISA. The microarchitecture of a machine is usually represented as (more or less detailed) diagrams that describe the interconnections of the various microarchitectural elements of the machine, which may be everything from single gates and registers, to complete arithmetic logic units (ALU)s and even larger elements.
