Can you imagine an operating system that can run multiple programs at the same time without the risk of buffering or shutting down? That would be a treat for the computer programmers, right?
This is the main reason we work on multiprogramming operating systems. It is defined as a system that switches between multiple programs without lagging. Hence, increasing your system’s overall efficiency while saving time.
Would you like to learn more about this useful invention? Then follow this blog to get information about the multiprogramming operating system and the single user operating system as well.
Multiprogramming Operating System
As the name suggests, the multiprogramming operating system is a component placed within your CPU which is used to run more than one program at a given point in time.
The multiple OS makes use of the single processor machine which is used to improve the efficiency of the CPU.
You can think of it as a resource that can perform multiple tasks simultaneously without buffering or overlapping the system.
multiprogramming OS works when the CPU immediately switches between programs when one requires the input/output operation. Read more...
