Abstract :

The purpose of this paper is to visualize the importance of Operating System for a computer to
run different types of program to run. Without operating system the computer is useless. Operating system
perform the task from input to output. Such as taking input from the keyboard and display output on the screen.
Running the different task provides the facility to the user of running the different tasks. From people to project
there is need of operating system for amending the man power. Now a days, different types of operating system
are came into the market which provide the better or advance connectivity or network facility to the user.

1. Introduction
As we know without operating system the computer is useless. The operating system mainly divided into two
such as application software and operating system software.Application software are the different task such creating
s/w for banking, customer query, creating website etc. the operating system software duty is to manage the task
which the application software provides. This task can be handled by operating system software with the help of
kernel.
2. Kernel
Kernel is the heart of operating system. It is the middle person between application software and data processing.
The different resources which needed for data execution is manage by the kernel. We also say that it is the
communication between software and the hardware component. In the operating system Environment different
program run at different level simultaneously and their resources which needed for the program for different users or
other program. It is handled by kernel. Kernel manage all these resources and make the program ready to run.

Kernel can provide various facilities for utilizing the various peripheral devices and memory in the operating system
environment. The facilities are-
1.Memory Management:
The duty of the kernel is to allow the access of memory and devices safely to each process act in the
environment.
2. Device management:
To perform useful function it needs device driver which controlled by the Kernel.
3. System Call:
By using the system Call kernel can give the access of control to various process by invoke each process .

4.History:
As we go back in early days there is no any operating System. The most important part from execution to
managing the resources is done by human being. Most of the work done by human being. But its having major
drawback, because it is not 100% assurity about the job execution. And delay of job and not multiuser or
multiprogramming concepts act. And another drawback is that the parts of the computer is very expensive.
From early stage to advance stage many different types of operating system came to act. Which give up or hand
over control to allow other program to executer in a stable and reliable manner and without risk load to any user
performing the execution. That operating system control all the operation and execution of different program and
their resources. These operating system provide the better interface between the user and system to interact or to
communicate easily with each other on different network to form a result.


5. .Types of Operating system:
5.1 Batch Operating System:
Batch operating system is one of the earliest operating system in which the various job are collected from the
different user in a batch form. And after collecting the job that job is proceed to the computer for further processing
or execution. In this there is scheduling algorithm is used. We have to advancaly book the time. So this is the major
drawback of Batch Operating System. Waiting for the job is very confusing to user whether there is error in the
program or program not work properly at this situation the program is halted in between. And then restart the same
program at new alloted time.

5.2. Multiprogramming And Time Sharing :
The Drawback of Batch operating System is that every time the processor go into idle state i.e wait for the jobs to
come. So it is time consuming and the input and output devices became slow as compare to processor. So by
enhancing the operating System. We created a Multiprogramming operating system. This System can work on the
basis of System call. By Requesting each and every time to Operating System of executing the program. The Basic
operation of this operating system is that we can share the input to the different program.No of program on a single
processor. Multiple program can be happened. when one program is waiting for I/O transfer; there is another
program ready to utilize the CPU. So it is possible for several jobs to share the time of the CPU. All the resources
and memory and the devices which are used are utilized effectively in Multiprogramming Environment.
Time Sharing: In this Operating System User can direct communicate with the system. The user can give direct
input to the system through mouse and keyboard and wait for immediate result. The time sharing allow many user to
share the CPU simultaneously by using various scheduling algorithm.

In this operating system multiple user going to act. i.e Each user is accessing the same operating system at different
machines. So that many task can be perform parallel and each user which are connected to the machines can
execute their job . This operating system can manage the resources and memory allocation for the program which
are going to execute and properly handled user interaction and data request.

Multi user share Common CPU
5.4 Distributed Operating System:
When we named this type operating system networking and communication came to act. Different machine on
different network can share their data on various network. And distributed the data on different network. Another
importance is that it can share the resources on the network. When an error occured in the one machine it will not
effect the whole network. User can from the local system can distributed the data on the network.

Distribute Job from various network
6. Services of Operating System:
6.1 Program Execution:
Operating System Providing the reliable environment to the user for execution of their Program. User is always
comfortable and there is no need to think about memory allocation.

6.2 I/O Operation:
Operating System take care about the user that they wont be confused, so that purpose the environment which is
created it will hide the hardware information from the user. So the user can see the input output without any details.
6.3 File System Manipulation:
In this Environment user does not think about the memory management. Just it has to give command for reading
and writing a file. The operating system perform all the operation without confusing user.
6.4 Communication:
Operating System Provide the Convenient Environment for exchange the information on Different Network.
6.5 Error Detection:
To avoid the malfunctioning of the system. Operating System always monitor the system for deleting error.

management, memory management, resource management etc. Android runtime provide such type of libraries for
android developers to write Android Application by using java Programming Language.
5.Linux kernel:
Just we know that the kernel is the part of system. Which is the medium between Application software and hardware
component, means that every software components needs software drivers to act without drivers the software
component is just visualize. To work it will needs drivers for function the software component. That the linux kernel
provide the functionality such as process management, memory management, device management, for displaying
feature, image function, sound function, keypad etc.

DALVIK VIRTUAL MACHINE:

Dalvik Virtual Machine

Java was developed for reducing drawback or enhance the capability of C++ ,i.e object oriented programming. Java
uses the concept of object oriented programming. Java uses the Byte code and that Byte code can run on any
system i.e we called write once, run anywhere. That made java language a platform independent. For Android
Application java was a well developed foe creating various Android Application so that for this purpose Dalvik
virtual Machine was choosen to implement standard library of java.
As we no that the Android platform was created for devices with enhance processing power , memory and
storage. The virtual machine based runtime doesnt fulfil the device requirement such as security, performances and
reliability. So that Google can address to DVM. So that the multiple Virtual Machine rune efficiently. The Dalvik
Virtual Machine executes a file in Dalvik Executable called .dex.
The Dex File Format: As we know that in java environment java source code is compiled into java byte code which
is stored into .Class files that .class files can read by java virtual machine at runtime. On the other hand of Android
Platform java source code also compiled into .class file but after the .class file are generated, the dx. tool is used to
convert that .class file into a .dex or Dalvik executable file as shown in above figure. A .dex file contains multiple
classes. This .dex files is e optimized for memory uses and sharing of data. So the conclusion is that the security
purpose and memory usage are more efficient and sharing of memory is more reliable

Conclusion:
This paper provides the various information about Evolution of different operating sytem and and their market
importance. Thus we have study the amendment of different operating system and their services.In this paper we
visualize that each operating system gives rise to the new operating system and their amendment function in the
market field. As we also see the open source operating system base on the java platform. And their uses for the

newly smartphones and laptop. And how the open source combine with the Dalvik Virtual Machine to form a newly
and enhance function for security purpose ,memory management,and the process management and network security.
The conclusion of this paper is that every operating system cannot be perfect as per the user point of view every
time we seen that the operating system was enhance on the basis of existing system.
