Open source software allows the public free access to modify and distribute its source code, while proprietary software restricts private modifications and copying through licensing. The key differences are that open source provides source code for public modification, has no purchase cost, and relies on community support, while proprietary software does not provide source code, requires purchase, and offers full vendor support. Examples of open source software include Mozilla Firefox and Linux Fedora, while proprietary examples include Microsoft Windows and Adobe Photoshop.System software 2

Linux is an open source operating system originally developed by Linus Torvalds in 1991. It provides users freedom in how they use, modify, and distribute the software. The Linux kernel manages hardware resources and runs programs. Popular distributions include Ubuntu and Linux Mint. Linux uses a graphical user interface with menus and desktop icons to access applications, files, and devices. It can be installed by booting from a live USB or CD, setting up partitions, and following installation instructions.Unit 2 m1

Desktop operating systems like Windows manage hardware resources on desktop computers to provide a stable environment for applications. Mobile operating systems like iOS and Android manage hardware resources on smartphones and tablets in addition to features like touchscreens, cellular connectivity, and apps. The major mobile operating systems are iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. iOS is only available on Apple devices and is touch-based, while Android is open source and customizable. Windows Phone has a tile interface and aggregates content into hubs. itft-Gnome and kde

2. Key advantages of open source software are that it is typically free to use and modify, encourages collaboration, and has transparent development processes. Disadvantages include potentially less professional support and documentation compared to commercial software.
3. Open source operating systems like Linux have publicly visible source code that can be edited. This allows for customization but also makes the software potentially more vulnerable to exploits.

An operating system manages a computer's memory, processes, software and hardware. It allows users to interact with the computer without needing to understand its programming language. The most common operating systems for personal computers are Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, and Linux. An operating system coordinates running programs and allocates resources like the CPU and memory. Mobile devices run operating systems designed specifically for their use, like Apple iOS and Google Android.lecture_9_operatingsystem.pptx

An operating system is the most important software that runs on a computer. It controls computer resources like memory and disk space, manages peripheral devices, and allows users to interact with the computer without knowing how it works internally. The three most common operating systems for personal computers are Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, and Linux. When a computer is turned on, the operating system loads and takes control of the computer's functions, allocating resources and ensuring all hardware and software components receive what they need. Microsoft Windows is the most widely used operating system, preinstalled on most PCs and able to be purchased separately. Mac OS is Apple's proprietary operating system preinstalled on Mac computers, accounting for around 7.5% of the marketOpen source softwares

Pervasive computing embeds microprocessors in everyday objects to allow communication and sharing of information. It relies on wireless technologies, electronics, and the internet to create smart, connected products. Researchers aim to develop products that seamlessly communicate and generate data available on the internet. Examples include smart TVs, which integrate the internet and web features into televisions and set-top boxes, allowing users to search for videos, movies, photos and other content from the web or local storage.4.2

Open source software is computer software where the source code is available to the public under a license that allows users to use, change, improve and redistribute the software in modified or unmodified forms. Hardware consists of the physical components of a computer that convert user input into binary code and translate binary output into a usable format. Software is divided into system software, which enables the computer to function and includes the operating system, and application software, which users employ directly, such as word processors, spreadsheets and databases.Assessment ICT 2014

- 1. 2.0 The Latest Open Source Operating System (OS) 2.1 Meaning of open source (OS) Open Source Operating System is the most important program that runs on a computer that is free to use, change and improve the software and to redistribute it in modified or unmodified forms. Every general-purpose computer must have an operating system to run other programs. Operating systems perform basic tasks, such as recognizing input from the keyboard, sending output to the display screen, keeping track of files and directories on the disk and controlling peripheral devices such as disk drives and printers. 2.2 Examples of open source (OS) KUBUNTU LINUX A user friendly operating system based on KDE the K Desktop Environment. With a predictable six month release cycle and part of the Ubuntu project, Kubuntuis the GNU/Linux distribution for everyone. Improved desktop, updated application and increased usability features are just a few of the surprises with this latest release. FEDORA LINUX A Linux- based operating system that showcases the latest in free and open sources software. Fedora is always free for anyone to use, modify and distribute. It is built by people across the globe who work together as a community: the Fedora Project. The Fedora Project is open and anyone is welcomed to join.
