What is web browser-computer world

                    What is web browser

Web Browser

A web browser is a program that your computer runs to communicate with web servers on the internet. Web browser must understand HTML and display text. Web browser are interpreter of HTML language web pages are HTML document send by server on client request and after reaching this document to client side the web browser intro parrots this HTML document in graphical interface. 

  • Web client run Special software called a browser that allow them to 
  • Connect to an appropriate server
  • Query the server for the information to be read. 
  •  Provided and interface to read the information returned by the server.
  • web Browser are software installed on your PC. To Excess the you need a web browsers, such as Netscape navigator, Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. There are four leading web browser Explorer, Firefox, Netscape and Safari but there are some other browsers available now we will see these browsers in bit more detail.
  •  Internet Explorer is a product from software giant Microsoft. This is the most commonly used browser in the world. This was introduced in 1995 along with Windows 95 launch and it has passed Netscape popularity in 1998
  • Netscape is one of the original web browser.  This is what Microsoft designed Internet Explorer to complete against. Netscape was introduced in in 1994 
  • Safari Safari is a web browser developed buy Apple Inc. and include in Mac OS X. it was first released as a public beta in January 2003. 
  • Opera is smaller and faster than most other browsers, yet it is full-featured.
  •  Linux is a fully-featured world wide web browser for users on Unix, VMS, and other platforms running cursor-addressable, character-cell terminal and emulators.

Deadlock in operating system-computer world

  Deadlock in operating system-computer world Deadlock :  In a multi-programming environment, many process may complete for a minute number of resources. A process make a request for a resource and if the resource is not available at that time, the process enter In a waiting state. A waiting state process is never again-able to change state because the resource it has requested is held by other waiting process. This situation is called deadlock. So we can say that a process is said to be deadlock when it is waiting for an event or resources which will never occurs.   so we can say that in this situation none of the process gets executed  since the resource it needs, is held by some other process which is also waits for some other resource to be released.  Let's assume that there are three process P1, P2, p3 and three different resources R1, R2 and R3. R1 is assigned to p1, R2 is assigned to P2 and R3 is assigned to P3.   After sometime P1 demands for R1 which is being used by  P2.

CPU scheduling in operating system-computer world

  CPU scheduling in operating system CPU scheduling :  Whenever the CPU becomes idle, the operating system must select one of the processes. The selection process is carried by the short-term scheduler. The scheduler selects a process from the processes in memory that that are ready to execute and allocate the CPU to that process. The objective of time sharing is to skip the CPU among processes that user interact with each program while the program is in running position. As we discuss above the process scheduler selects an process for execution on the CPU. There will never more then one running process for a single processor system. If there are many processes, the process will have to wait until the CPU is free CPU Scheduling is basis of multi-programming operating system. In CPU scheduling many processes are kept in memory at a time. The CPU scheduler select a process from the many processes. The process scheduler scheduled different processes to be assigned to the CPU based on part

Single partition allocation, Multiple-partition allocation and Fixed Equal-size partitions in operating system-computer world

  Single partition allocation, Multiple-partition allocation and Fixed Equal-size partitions in operating system Single partition allocation In this scheme operating system is residing in law memory and user process are executing in higher memory. Advantages It is simple  It is easy to understand and use Disadvantages User job is limited to the size of available memory. It leads to poor Utilization of processor and memory. Multiple-partition allocation  It is the simplest method for allocating  memory is divided memory into several fixed size partitions. Fixed Equal-size partitions It divides the main memory Into equal number of fixed sized partitions, operating system occupies some fixed portion and remaining portion of main memory is available for user processes. Advantages It supports multi programming. A process whose size is less then or equal to the partitions size can be loaded into any available partition. Disadvantages If a program is big to fit into a partition use overlay te
