3. INTRODUCTION
Google
Google began in January 1996 as a research
project by Larry Page and Sergey Brin when they were
both PhD students at Stanford University in California
Chromium projects
The Chromium projects include Chromium and
Chromium OS, the open-source projects behind the
Google Chrome browser and Google Chrome OS
4. Google CHROME OS
Google CHROME
Google Chrome OS is an open source operating system designed
by Google to work exclusively with web applications .
Google Chrome is a web browser developed by Google
that uses the WebKit layout engine and application
framework.
The operating system is based on Linux and will run only
on specifically designed hardware.
6. Google Chrome OS - a Revolution in OS

8. Design goals and direction
ARCHITECTURE
Google describes a three-tier architecture:
Firmware, web browser
System-level software and userland services
Window manager
9. The firmware contributes to fast boot time by not digging into
for hardware, such as floppy disk drives, that are no longer common on
computers, especially netbooks.
System-level software includes the Linux kernel that has been patched to
improve boot performance.
Userland software has been trimmed to essentials, with management
by Upstart, which can launch services in parallel, re-spawn crashed jobs,
and defer services in the interest of faster booting.
The window manager handles user interaction with multiple client
windows much like other X window managers.
11. FEATURES AND WORKING
Printing
Google Cloud Print is Google's proposed solution to help any
application on any device to print on any printer.
Link Handling
Chrome OS was designed with the intention of having user
documents and files stored on online servers. However, both Chrome OS
and the Chrome browser have unresolved decisions regarding handling
specific file type’s offline.

21. Google's successive introduction of the popular Android and
Google Chrome OS has put the company behind two open
source, client-based operating systems
Steven Levy wrote that "the dissonance between the two
systems was apparent" at the 2011 Google I/O developer
conference.
Sergey Brin suggested that the two systems "will likely
converge over time.”
