Mac OS X Applications

Mac OS X Model OS Foundation Beneath the easy-to-use interface and rich graphics of Mac OS X is Darwin , an open source UNIX-based foundation built on technologies such as FreeBSD, Mach, Apache , and GCC. Darwin provides a complete UNIX environment, with X11 and POSIX services comparable to Linux or FreeBSD, including familiar kernel, libraries, networking and command-line utilities.

Mac OS X Model System Management Built using many of the same technologies that power the Internet itself, Mac OS X includes modern networking and support for standard protocols. This makes Mac OS X easy to integrate into any standards-based network, including existing Macintosh networks, Windows networks, and of course the Internet .

Mac OS X Model Graphics and Media The Mac OS X graphics system combines 2D, 3D, and time-based media standards. The 2D system is called Quartz and is the primary imaging model for Mac OS X. Quartz is based on Portable Document Format (PDF) and supports all major font standards. Open GL is the 3D graphics model for Mac OS X. QuickTime is the standards-based environment for creating and playing video, audio, and images. Mac OS X Core Audio integrates audio functions directly into the operating system.

Mac OS X Model Application Frameworks Mac OS X includes a variety of rich application frameworks, built on top of the traditional UNIX. Developers can create Aqua user interfaces for Cocoa, Carbon, AppleScript and Java applications with the included Xcode tools.

Mac OS X Model User Interface Mac OS X features a stunning user interface that is functional. The Aqua interface makes working on the Mac intuitive for new users, while providing powerful, customized tools for professionals. Exposé allows you to navigate open windows. Handwriting recognition, fast user switching and internationalization are all part of Mac OS X.

Mac OS X Model Audio: Core audio application programming code Cocoa: APIs that can be used to create applications Java 2: “write once, run anywhere” applications Carbon: software running across Mac OS 9 & X Classic: emulation of original Mac OS applications
