Virtual Operating System (Hard Disk, Scheduling & Network Simulation)

Abstract

An operating system is a program that acts as an inte1mediary between a computer user and the computer hardware. The purpose of an operating system is to provide an environment in which a user can execute programs. The primary goal of an operating system is thus to make the computer system convenient to use. A secondary goal is to use the computer hardware in an efficient manner. The aim of this project is that students not only learn the O.S. routines, algorithms and hardware theoretically but also can observe these things through Virtual Operating System as it represents all these things graphically, which can enhance their learning. Teachers can also use Virtual Operating System to elaborate the difficult concepts while teaching operating system.
