A DBMS is a software tool that allows multiple users to
store, access, and process data into useful information.
Database programs are designed for these types of
applications:
Membership lists
Student lists
Grade reports
Instructor schedules
All of these have to be maintained so you can find what
you need quickly and accurately.
Example:Microsoft Access, dBASE, Oracle.

Operating System is a software, which makes a
computer to actually work.
It is the software the enables all the programs we use.
The OS organizes and controls the hardware.
OS acts as an interface between the application
programs and the machine hardware.
Examples:
Windows, Linux, Unix and Mac OS, etc.,

An operating system performs basic tasks such as,
controlling and allocating memory,
prioritizing system requests,
controlling input and output devices,
facilitating networking and
managing file systems.

The evolution of operating systems went through seven
major phases.
Six of them significantly changed the ways in which
users accessed computers through the open shop, batch
processing, multiprogramming, timesharing, personal
computing, and distributed systems.
In the seventh phase the foundations of concurrent
programming were developed and demonstrated in
model operating systems.

In Batch processing same type of jobs batch
(BATCH- a
set of jobs with similar needs)
together and execute at a
time.
The OS was simple, its major task was to transfer control
from one job to the next.
The job was submitted to the computer operator in form
of punch cards. At some later time the output appeared.
The OS was always resident in memory. (Ref. Fig. next
slide)
Common Input devices were card readers and tape
drives.

Common output devices were line printers, tape drives,

Users did not interact directly with the computer
systems, but he prepared a job (comprising of the
program, the data, & some control information).

:
Multiprogramming is a technique to execute number of
programs simultaneously by a single processor.
In Multiprogramming, number of processes reside in
main memory at a time.
The OS picks and begins to executes one of the jobs in
the main memory.
If any I/O wait happened in a process, then CPU
switches from that job to another job.
Hence CPU in not idle at any time.

Time sharing, or multitasking, is a logical extension of
multiprogramming.
Multiple jobs are executed by switching the CPU
between them.
In this, the CPU time is shared by different processes, so
it is called as “Time sharing Systems”.
Time slice is defined by the OS, for sharing CPU time
between processes.
Examples: Multics, Unix, etc.,

Example: Unix
Operating systems are essential software that enable computers to function effectively by managing hardware resources and facilitating communication between applications and hardware. This article covers the basics of operating systems, their structure, evolution, functions, and types. It also explores application software like Database Management Systems, Spreadsheets, and Graphic Presentations. Examples and uses of different software tools are discussed to provide a comprehensive overview of operating systems and application software.
