The operating system acts as an interface between the hardware and the programs requesting I/O. It is the most fundamental of all system software programs.
Responsibilities of the OS include:
Hiding the complexities of hardware from the user.
Managing between the hardware's resources which include the processors, memory, data storage and I/O devices.
Handling "interrupts" generated by the I/O controllers.
Sharing of I/O between many programs using the CPU.
There are two types of software:
System Software - programs that manage the operation of a computer.
Application Software - programs that help the user perform a particular task.
