Operating System from a network with 2 GBps line than
from a local hard disc. Then why have OS in a hard disc
which is not at all robust with its moving parts. There are
few technologies which try to solve this problem. Ether
boot, WebOS, onlineOS, Thin Clients are the few ideas.
But majority of these make use of a small OS initially
loaded which takes control in loading OS from the

increase in the booting time. This becomes big drawback
in loading OS over a network (Network Booting [1]). This
paper discusses about integrating TCP/IP module and an
INTERPRETER module into the BIOS and running OS
on a remote server, thus trying to achieve zero booting
time.

within their local hard disc. But with increasing internet
speed, with 2 GBps internet speed we can achieve the
PCI speed that is generally used in PCs. So we can
instead boot OS from a network and thus can avoid the
need of hard disc on every computer. Well known
technology towards solving this problem generally
loads complete or a part of OS from a network. Most of
these technologies make use of small OS which will be
initially loaded from its local ROM memory.
Commands, input, output, display messages, audiovideo data etc all are referred in this paper as data.
Proposed Client Server Model, which is defined
later in this paper, is referred to as System

Centralized network:
This system is more towards a centralized network.
The major disadvantage comes in making this a
decentralized system because of allotting disc
space for each user. One solution for this may be to
inter connect all the servers containing OS. Thus
will have access to electronic space allotted to each
user. But this will further decrease the efficiency of
the system proposed in this paper.
Single point of failure:
Crashing of server containing OS will shut down
the entire network.

6. Conclusion:
In this system a TCP connection is established with
the server containing OS. Best case efficiency of
98.33% and the worst case efficiency of 7.69% is
achieved. But most of the time this would be working
near to worst case hence average of this would be closer
to worst case. Considering the usage of personal
computers we expect an average efficiency of 15%25% is achievable. So a 2 GBps internet connection
with 15%-25% efficiency would mean 300MBps 500
MBps speed so that will be comparable with 64 bit, 133
MHz, 512 MBps PCI bus. Hence our system can
replace the existing traditional loading of Operating
System from a local hard disc. And since we are
creating one more instance of OS in the server and
running the OS on server we are drastically reducing
the boot up time. And with further increase in internet
speed it will be a better option than running OS on a
local hard disc.
