In the simplest of terms, the operating system allows for the connection between the operating’s software and hardware to be used together, in order for the computer’s functions to be utilized. The reading also demonstrates the progress of the system over the course of time since the 1950s, with the most predominant change being its capabilities, as with it’s expanded memory storage and run multiple programs. However, with such advances, required a great number of years in order to reach the capabilities of today’s computers. Different computer companies each worked on their own forms of the operating system, and with each one, while not being completely at full ability, each one was a step closer to the operating system of the present day.
