Operating System Types: Batch, Real-Time, and Multiprocessing

Batch Processing Systems

The first operating systems were batch systems. Initially, punch card systems only allowed sequential access to information, so tasks were executed line by line, using only one application package at a time. In a batch OS, instructions are delivered, implemented, and then the result is delivered.

Monoprogramming means that the system can only perform one task at a time. When a program enters the process, it takes over the CPU and I/O until it finishes.

There are several variants:

Understanding Sorting Algorithms and Search Techniques

1. Different sorting algorithms vary in their efficiency. A more efficient algorithm will be faster and consume fewer resources (memory). The ordered data can be stored in main memory or mass storage. If the data is stored in lists and in small quantities, it is usually temporarily stored in arrays and records. This data is stored exclusively for internal treatments used for massive data management. There are two fundamental management techniques in data management: managing lists and file management.

Embedded System Communication Protocols and Memory Concepts

UART Communication Protocol Details

UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) mode operates as follows:

  1. Idle State: A non-return-to-zero (NRZ) state where the serial line maintains a logic state of 1.
  2. Start Bit: A signaling flag indicating the beginning of a byte, marked by a 1-to-0 transition. The receiver detects this transition at the middle of the bit interval (T).
  3. Data Bits: Following the start bit, typically 8 data bits are transmitted on the TxD line and received on the RxD line over

Pointer Basics

int x;

int y;

int *p = &x;

int *q = &y;

x = 35; y = 46;

p = q;

*p = 78;

cout << x << endl;

cout << y << endl;


int *p;

int *q;

p = new int;

q = p;

*p = 46;

*q = 39;

cout << *p << endl;


int *p;

int *q;

p = new int;

*p = 43;

q = p;

*q = 52;

p = new int;

*p = 78;

q = new int;

*q = *p;

cout << *p << endl;
