Thursday Evening Module 1 Short Answer Mr. Kelly The Purpose and Functions of an Operating System An OS (operating system) of a computer is necessary for ease of use, managing data and to interact with Input/output devices. It has 5 key functions; Boot the computer, Manage input and output devices, provide a GUI (graphical user interface) for user friendliness, manage system resources and manage data. There are three major Operating Systems. They are Windows, Linux and Mac OS. The Windows Operating

turned off. Basically, it is the work place of the computer where active programs and data are loaded so that any time the processor requests them, it doesn’t have to fetch them from the hard disk which will take longer access time. BIOS-Basic Input Output System- consists of low-level software that controls the system hardware and acts as an interface between the operating system and the hardware. BIOS is all the drivers- it is the link between hardware and software in a system. CMOS-Complementary

This assessment is about the identification of I/O ports and devices linked to a computer. It is easy to accidentally unplug an I/O device. If you do, knowledge of the ports and the devices that connect to them will help you correctly reconnect the device. Required Setup and Tools In this laboratory, you need to: * Look at the outside of a desktop or notebook computer. * Access to the Internet for research. Recommended Procedures Task 1: Identify the Ports Procedure 1.

also integrates additional elements such as read-only and read-write memory, and input/output interfaces. Microcontrollers are frequently used in automatically controlled products and devices, such as automobile engine control systems, office machines, appliances, power tools, and toys. By reducing the size, cost, and power consumption compared to a design using a separate microprocessor, memory, and input/output devices, microcontrollers make it economical to electronically control many more processes
