Why are modern operating systems designed to implement multiprocessing?
Multiprocessing is based on the fact that computers work much faster than humans. While you type a sentence on your word processor, the computer is doing nothing, waiting for you to hit the 'save' key, or the spellchecker. Because many people want to do as many things at the same time as possible, modern operating systems are designed to be able to have several programs working at the same time. Thus, while a person is surfing the Web, their email program is checking for new mail. Macintosh was the first multitasking operating system for home computers, followed shortly by Windows. Every window that is open in Windows is a separate application as far as the central processer is concerned, and each one is given a certain amount of processer time to perform whatever processing is needed. Until recently, the processers in home computers were not fast enough to be able to multitask without a noticable slowing down of the applications. Playing a CD while accessing the hard drive resulted in choppy audio, and slow refresh times on the moniter. However, new proccesers are so fast that many different applications have to be active before any noticable slowdown occurs.

Assuming those 4 elements are the processor, memory, hard drive and motherboard. The hard drive stores all your files no matter if the computer is on or not. The memory is were the files from your hard drive go so the files can be easily managed since memory is much faster then the hard drive (mechanical vs. electrical). The processor handles all of the operations of the computer and the motherboard is the highway system that transfers the information to the various components.The four elements of the computer are:1 hardware2 software3 operating system4 application programs The four elements of the computer are:1 hardware2 software3 operating system4 application programs The four elements of the computer are:1 hardware2 software3 operating system4 application programs The four elements of the computer are:1 hardware2 software3 operating system4 application programs
