Plagiarism

Cheaters will be found and punished


Will use sophisticated software to detect plagiarized
programs
Cheating includes:

“Borrowing” code from someone





This includes reading previous solutions
Giving code to someone
Copying code from anyone (including the net)
Hiring someone to write your code
Submitting someone else’s code as your own

Introduction to Operating Systems
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
11
What’s An Operating System?

Definition has changed over years



Originally, very bare bones
Now, includes more and more
Bill Gates: Windows =
Everything in other operating systems
+Internet Explorer
+Media player
+ “even a ham sandwich” (DOJ vs. Microsoft)

OS:Traditional View

Interface between user
and architecture


Implements virtual machine:


Hides architectural details
Easier to program than
raw hardware (hopefully)
Provides services and
coordinates machine
activities
User-level Applications
virtual machine interface
Operating System
physical machine interface
Hardware

New Developments in OS Design

Operating systems: active field of research




Demands on OS’s growing
New application spaces (Web, Grid)
Rapidly evolving hardware
Advent of open-source operating systems – Linux


You can contribute to and develop OS’s!
Excellent research platform

History of Operating Systems
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
15
The Dark Ages (1940’s-1960’s)
Hardware: expensive;
humans: cheap
 Evolution of functionality:




One user
Batch processing
Overlap of I/O &
computation
Multiprogramming
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
16
1. Single-User Computers


One user at a time on console
Computer executes one function at a time


No overlap: computation & I/O
User must be at console to debug
Multiple users = inefficient use of machine
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
17
2. Batch Processing

Execute multiple “jobs” in batch:







Load program
Run
Print results, dump machine state
Repeat
Users submit jobs (on cards or tape)
Human schedules jobs
Operating system loads & runs jobs
More efficient use of machine, complicates debugging
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
18
3. Overlap I/O and Computation


Before: machine waits for I/O to complete
New approach:


Allow CPU to execute while waiting
Add buffering


Data fills “buffer” and then output
and interrupt handling

I/O events trigger a signal (“interrupt”)
More efficient use of machine, but still one job at a time
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
19
4. Multiprogramming

Allow several programs to run at same time



Run one job until I/O
Run another job, etc.
OS manages interaction between programs:



Which jobs to start
Protects program’s memory from others
Decides which to resume when CPU available

OS Complexity


Increased functionality & complexity
First OS failures




Multics (GE & MIT):
announced 1963, released 1969
OS/360 released with 1000 known bugs
Need to treat OS design scientifically
Managing complexity becomes key to…
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
21
The Renaissance (1970’s)
Hardware: cheap; humans: expensive
 Users share system via terminals
 The UNIX era
 Multics:


UNIX:




army of programmers, six years
three guys, two years
“Shell”: composable commands
No distinction between programs & data
But: response time & thrashing
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
22
The Industrial Revolution (1980’s)
Hardware very cheap;
humans expensive
 Widespread use of PCs


IBM PC: 1981, Macintosh: 1984
Simple OS (DOS, MacOS)



No multiprogramming,
concurrency, memory
protection, virtual memory, …
Later: networking, file-sharing,
remote printing…
GUI added to OS (“WIMP”)
UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS, AMHERST • Department of Computer Science
23
The Modern Era (1990’s-now)
Hardware cheap; Processing demands increasing
 “Real” operating systems on PC’s
 NT (1991); Mac OS X; Linux
 Different modalities:
 Parallel: Multiple processors, one machine
 Distributed: Multiple networked processors
 Real-time: Strict or loose deadlines
 Sensor networks: Many small computers

Moral of the Story

The only constant: Change


In 50 years, almost every computer component now
9 orders of magnitude faster, larger, cheaper
Example:
1983
1999
0.5
500
cost/MIP
$100,000
$500
memory
1 MB
1 GB
network
10 Mbit/s
1 GB/s
1 GB
1 Tbyte
MIPS
disk

Moral of the Story, II

No counterpart in any other sphere of
human existence!

Transportation:


200 years: horseback (10 mph) to Concorde (1000
mph) = 2 orders of magnitude
Communication is closest:

100 years: Pony Express (10 mph) to nearly speed of
light (600 million mph) = 7 orders of magnitude

Coming Soon


Moore’s Law – running out of steam
New features coming to computer near you:



Multiple cores
Unreliable memory
Serious power/heat constraints
