operating system

The operating system is the software (or software) more important than one computer. To work for other programs, each general-purpose computer must have an operational system. Operating systems perform basic tasks such as recognition of the keyboard connection, sending information to the screen, keep track of files and directories on disk, and controlling peripheral devices such as printers, scanners.

In large systems, the operating system has even greater responsibility and power, is like a traffic cop, make sure that programs and users who are running simultaneously do not interfere with them. The operating system is also responsible for security, ensuring that unauthorized users do not have access to the system.
