12. How system
software works .
The operating system ( prominent
examples being z/OS, Microsoft
Windows, Mac OS X and Linux ),
allows the parts of a computer to
work together by performing tasks
like transferring data between
memory and disks or rendering
output onto a display device. It also
provides a platform to run high-level
system software and
application software.
A kernel is the core part of the
operating system that defines an
API for applications programs
(including some system software)
and an interface to device drivers.
Device drivers such as computer
BIOS and device firmware provide
basic functionality to
operate and control the hardware
connected to or built into the
computer.

based, Windows 95 introduced
support for native 32-bit applications, plug
and play hardware, preemptive
multitasking, long file names of up to 255
characters, and provided increased
stability over predecessors .

its DOS-based predecessors.
 After a lengthy development process,
Windows Vista was released on

 On July 22, 2009, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 were
released as RTM (release to manufacturing) while the former was
released to the public 3 months later on October 22, 2009. Unlike
its predecessor, Windows Vista, which introduced a large number
of new features . Windows 7 was intended to be a more focused,
incremental upgrade to the Windows line, with the goal of being
compatible with applications and hardware with which Windows
Vista was already compatible. Windows 7 has multi-touch
support, a redesigned Windows shell with an updated taskbar, a
home networking system called HomeGroup and performance
improvements.
 Windows 8, the successor to Windows 7, was released generally
on October 26, 2012. A number of significant changes were made
on Windows 8, including the introduction of a user interface
based around Microsoft's Metro design language with
optimizations for touch-based devices such as tablets and all-in-one
PCs. These changes include the Start screen, which uses
large tiles that are more convenient for touch interactions and
allow for the display of continually updated information, and a
new class of apps which are designed primarily for use on touch-based
devices. Other changes include increased integration with
cloud services and other online platforms (such as social networks
and Microsoft's own SkyDrive and Xbox Live services) .
