INTRODUCTION – Amirah Aradhana Budaya (19232177)

Hello everyone, We would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone present here today.
My name is Amirah, and I am joined by my colleagues Matheus and Dhias. Before we delve into our
presentation, allow us to briefly introduce ourselves and our roles within the group. I am Amirah
Aradhana, and I am responsible for opening. My colleague Dhias Darma responsible for body to the
team. Finally, we have Matheus Bhae, who is responsible for closing.
Together, we are here to present Software and Operating System.
In an era where technology dominates almost every aspect of life, understanding software and operating
systems has become increasingly important. Both are the foundation for various modern technologies,
including computers, smartphones and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. By choosing a presentation topic
about software and operating systems, we hope to provide our audience with valuable insight into the
importance of understanding the technologies underlying today's digital world, as well as provide a
deeper look into how the software and operating systems that are widely used in our world work various
sectors.
There are three main topics we will discuss. First “what is software?” includes meaning, function and
types. Secondly “what is an operating system?” includes meaning, function and types. And third is the
“difference between software and operating systems”.
Our presentation will take about 7 minutes. (?)
And also, I can email the PowerPoint presentation to anybody who wants it.
And If you have any questions, feel free to interrupt us at any time.
Together, we have worked diligently to prepare a comprehensive presentation on Software and
Operating System, and we are excited to share our findings and insights with you today. Without further
ado, let's dive into our presentation. Thank you.

• What is Software?
• Definition of Software:
Software refers to a set of instructions or programs that enable a computer system to perform
specific tasks. It encompasses all the non-physical components of a computer system, including
programs, applications, and operating systems.
• Importance of Software in Computing:
Software plays a crucial role in computing as it enables users to interact with hardware and
accomplish various tasks efficiently. Without software, computers would be unable to perform
any meaningful functions.
• Types of Software
• System software:
System software comprises programs that control and manage the basic operations of a
computer system. It includes the following components:
• Operating Systems (OS): The operating system is the core software that manages
hardware resources and provides a user interface for interacting with the
computer. Examples include Windows, macOS, and Linux.
• Device Drivers: Device drivers are software programs that enable the operating
system to communicate with hardware devices such as printers, graphics cards,
and input devices.
• Utility Programs: Utility programs perform system maintenance tasks such as
disk cleanup, virus scanning, and system optimization.
• Application software:
Application software is designed to perform specific tasks or applications for end-users.
Examples include:
• Word Processors: Word processing software, like Microsoft Word and Google
Docs, allows users to create, edit, and format text documents.
• Web Browsers: Web browsers, such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and
Microsoft Edge, enable users to access and navigate the World Wide Web.
• Games: Gaming software provides entertainment through interactive gameplay
experiences. Examples include popular video games like Fortnite, Minecraft, and
Call of Duty.
• What is Operating System?
• Definition of Operating System:
An operating system (OS) is a software program that acts as an intermediary between computer
hardware and user applications. It manages computer hardware resources and provides a
platform for running software programs. The operating system is responsible for tasks such as
managing memory, controlling input and output devices, scheduling tasks, and providing a user
 interface.
• Importance of Operating System in Computing:
The operating system is essential for the proper functioning of a computer system and plays a
vital role in computing for several reasons:
• Resource Management: The operating system manages hardware resources such as
CPU (Central Processing Unit), memory (RAM), disk storage, and peripheral devices. It
allocates resources efficiently among running processes to ensure smooth operation.
• Process Management: The operating system schedules and manages processes or tasks
running on the computer. It controls the execution of programs, multitasking, and
switching between different applications.
• Memory Management: The operating system manages system memory, allocating and
deallocating memory space to running programs as needed. It ensures that each
program has access to the required memory resources without interfering with other
processes.
• File System Management: The operating system provides a file system that organizes
and manages files and directories stored on disk storage devices. It facilitates file
creation, deletion, reading, and writing operations.
• Device Management: The operating system controls input and output (I/O) devices
such as keyboards, mice, monitors, printers, and network adapters. It handles device
communication and provides device drivers to facilitate interaction between software
and hardware components.
• Types of Operating Systems:
There are several types of operating systems, each designed for specific computing
environments and devices. Some common types include:
• Single-User, Single-Tasking OS: These operating systems support only one user and
allow them to perform one task at a time. Examples include early versions of MS-DOS.
• Single-User, Multi-Tasking OS: These operating systems support one user but allow
them to run multiple programs simultaneously. Examples include Microsoft Windows,
macOS, and various flavors of Linux.
• Multi-User OS: These operating systems support multiple users concurrently, allowing
them to share system resources and run programs simultaneously. Examples include
UNIX and Linux server editions.
• Real-Time OS: Real-time operating systems are designed for applications that require
precise and predictable timing, such as embedded systems and control systems in
industrial settings.
• Mobile OS: Mobile operating systems are designed for smartphones, tablets, and other
mobile devices. Examples include Android, iOS, and Windows Mobile.
• Difference between System Software and Operating System
 System software and operating system are two related concepts but are not the same thing. Here
are some of the main differences:
• Scope: Operating system is a type of system software, but system software is not limited to
operating system only. System software includes various other programs that help to manage
and run the computer system, such as device drivers, language translators, utility programs,
and more.
• Function: Operating system is the main program that manages and controls all the other
software and hardware components of the computer. It provides a platform for other software
applications to run on top of it. System software, on the other hand, provides tools and
services to help developers create and manage software applications.
• Importance: Operating system is an essential component of any computer system. Without an
operating system, a computer cannot function. System software, on the other hand, is
important but not essential. Some applications can run without system software, but they may
not be able to utilize the full power of the computer system.
• Complexity: Operating systems are usually more complex than other types of system software.
They have to manage hardware resources, provide security, and support various software
applications. System software, on the other hand, can be relatively simple in comparison,
depending on its purpose.
