Lecture 14: Operating Systems
Intro to IT
Where to begin?
How do you start an operating system?
Boot it! (or bootstrap)
 Turn on power ()
 Machine loads bootstrap program from
ROM (non-volatile memory)
 Bootstrap program loads OS
 OS takes over

Lecture 16: Operating Systems
Intro to IT
Processes
A program is a static set of
instructions
A processes is the execution
of a program, which changes
state over time.

Lecture 14: Operating Systems
Intro to IT
Interrupts
 Signals to the CPU
 Often generated by timing circuits
 CPU reacts by jumping to appropriate memory
location
 Dispatcher
 selects a ready process
 resets timing circuit
 starts process
 CPUs often designed to switch process states
efficiently

Interrupts
 Provide mechanism to switch processes
 CPU doesn’t have to wait for I/O transfers
 Switching leads to faster throughput
 `Save document’ means CPU does something
else while the save takes place
