Want this question answered?
is Distributed operating system a centralized OS
factors of operating system design
In centralised tasks are done by one system and in distributed tasks are shared by the many computers
Linux is distributed as Red Hat
There are basically four types of operating systems. They include Batch Operating System, Multiprogramming Operating System, Network Operating System and Distributed Operating System.
A distributed system in operating system, is simple the distribution of jobs among the different unit of a computer system. Eg:- When printing a picture the job are distributed among different unit of a computer such as a processor , RAM, and a printer..ETC
Advantages of distributed operating system include: sharing of resources, reliability, communication and computation speedup. Distributed systems are potentially more reliable than a central system because if a system has only one instance of some critical component like CPU.
1. BATCH PROCESSING operating system 2. MULTIPROGRAMMING operating system 3. TIME SHARING operating system 4. REAL TIME operating system 5. DISTRIBUTED operating system
On a computer network, operating systems communicate with each other. In a distributed operating system, a single OS is communicating with itself across multiple machines.
Distributed Operating System (DOS)
Several operating systems are capable of functioning in a distributed manner, including Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Mac OS X.
