History of Operating Systems
HISTORY OF OPERATIMG SYSTEMS Operating systems (OS) provide a set of functions needed and used by most application programs on
a computer, and the linkages needed to control and synchronize computer hardware. On the first computers, with no operating system, every

had to become familiar with complex job control languages to specify the jobs their resource requirements. Third generation operating systems
represented a great step forward, but a painful one for many users. Examples include: 1.1966, DOS/360. 2.1969, UNIX. THE 4TH
