What part of the operating system is responsible for interacting with the hardware?
Kernel
What is the core part of an operating system and what is the first part to be loaded?
The core part of an operating system is typically the kernel, which manages system resources, hardware communication, and process management. The first part to be loaded during the boot process is the bootloader, which initializes the system hardware and loads the kernel into memory to start the operating system. Once the kernel is loaded, it takes over control and manages the overall operation of the system.
Is an operating system considered to be part of the hardware of a computer system because the machine cannot function at all without it?
The operating system cannot be called hardware. It is a program developed to use and perform calculations between the hardware processor, memory and information stored on a hard drive.
Is Linux a operating system software?
Technically speaking linux is a kernel. The kernel is the part of the operating system that acts as a middleman/translator between the hardware and the software.
What is the central part of an operating system that directly controls the computer hardware.?
The central part of an operating system that directly controls the computer hardware is called the kernel. The kernel manages system resources, facilitates communication between hardware and software components, and handles tasks such as memory management, process scheduling, and device control. It operates at a low level, ensuring efficient and secure interaction with the underlying hardware.
What is an important part of the system software which contains instructions that tell the computer how to perform the functions of loading storing and executing an application program?
The operating system is the part that take care of the communications between software and hardware.
Is compiler a part of operating system?
compiler basically translator of one language to desired languages...ex-c language to m/c redable format and os is a system software which provides interfaces between applicaton programs and hardware....so os is a interface unit system software and compiler just a translator....
Part of operating system?
How is a memory-resident part of an operating system different from a nonresident part of an operating system?
What part of the operating system loads first and remains in the main memory?
The bootloader is the part of the operating system that loads first during the system startup. It initializes the hardware and loads the kernel into the main memory, which remains there to manage system resources and execute processes. The kernel serves as the core component of the operating system, facilitating communication between hardware and software. Once loaded, the bootloader typically relinquishes control to the kernel, which takes over the system's operations.
Is shell a part of the operating system?
No. It is easier to alter shell when it is not part of the operating system. Answer: its easier but the real answer is shell is not part of Operating system as it is command prompt use to operate operating system and its part of disk operating system
Is shell a part of operating system?
No. It is easier to alter shell when it is not part of the operating system. Answer: its easier but the real answer is shell is not part of Operating system as it is command prompt use to operate operating system and its part of disk operating system
True or False - An operating system is a special type of hardware?
False, the OS is software, it is not a physical part of the computer
