Today in a computer era there are two most used operating systems i.e. Windows and Linux. Windows is famous for its easy to use interface. Linux, on the other hand provides a ton of inbuilt functionalities to automatize task. To understand which one is superior we are going to compare them on grounds of kernel architectural differences, memory management, respective file systems and CPU scheduling task. These are standard bench-marks on which we are contrasting the internal working of an operating system. Linux and Windows vary in price, viewpoint and adaptability, with both in quest to stabilize in their present flaws.

Address Space Layout Randomization

Memory management is one of the main tasks of an Operating System, where the data of each process running in the system is kept. In this context, there exist several types of attacks that exploit memory-related vulnerabilities, forcing Operating Systems to feature memory protection techniques that make difficult to exploit them. One of these techniques is ASLR, whose function is to introduce randomness into the virtual address space of a process. The goal of this work was to measure, analyze and compare the behavior of ASLR on the 64-bit versions of Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. The results have shown that the implementation of ASLR has improved significantly on these two Operating Systems compared to previous versions. However, there are aspects, such as partial correlations or a frequency distribution that is not always uniform, so it can still be improved.

Today, smart cards are widely used in variety of applications of human life.The nature of these cards depends on theirs operating system, in other words the operating system determines that card can be used in what field. Hardware development on the one hand and increasing use of smart cards on the other, have led to that the operating systems have progressed dramatically.Moving from special-purpose operating systems with single application into multi-purpose operating systems with open architecture, is proof of claim.Increase the number of operating systems and variety of their applications, caused that the need to categorize and classify operating systems be felt more than ever.Smart card operating systems can be categorized based on different parameters such as file management, applications management, and historical generations. In this paper we will discussion about smart card operating systems and their classification based on these parameters.

The concept of Super-Paging has been wandering around for more than a decade. Super-Pages are supported by some operating systems. In addition, there are some interesting research papers that show interesting ideas how to intelligently integrate Super-Pages into modern operating systems; however, the page replacement algorithms used by the contemporary operating system even now use the old Clock algorithm which does not prioritize small or large pages based on their size. In this chapter an algorithm for page replacement in a Super-Page environment is presented. The new technique for page replacement decisions is based on the page size and other parameters; hence is appropriate for a Super-Paging environment.

This article describes the family of emulators for IBM mainframe architectures, their development history, functional features and capability, as well as the experience of many years (since 1994) of emulators development and their implementation area. There was sold the relatively simple task (for modern standards) of creating a virtual machine in the VSE/ESA operating system for transferring legacy platform-dependent applications to this target environment. The problem was solved at first for EU computers in Russia, and then for IBM 9221 in Germany and in the other western countries. The transfer was made to the OS/390 environment, and to IBM AIX, quite modern at that time. The virtual execution of any existing IBM mainframe operating systems in the main server OS environments: Linux, Windows, AIX, Z/OS, ZLinux had been provided. There was developed the solution for combining any types of formed virtual computing nodes into heterogeneous geographically distributed computing networks that provide, in particular, multiple mutual redundancy of nodes in the network.

Since the great success of the operating system Linux, the development of Free and Open Source Software is broad discussed. This is also seen as the beginning of a new economic development. This paper examines, what makes Linux actually so significant for the computer industry. First Linux is critical evaluated and placed opposite the Microsoft operating systems. Than some substantial new influences on the development and production in the computer industry are worked out. On the one hand this are modifications in the production chain of computers and on the other hand network effects (externalization), which proceed from these products. On the basis of this new economic situation the Linux phenomenon is explained and it is shown from which the great importance of Microsoft in the computer industry results at present.

Every modern operating system provides some form of virtual memory to its applications. Usually, a hardware memory management unit (MMU) exists to efficiently support this. Although most operating systems allow user programs to indirectly control the MMU, few programs or programming languages actually make use of this facility. This article explores how the MMU can be used to enhance memory handling for resizable arrays. A reference implementation in C++ demonstrates its usability and superiority compared to the standard C++ vector class, and how to combine the scheme with an object-oriented environment. A number of other improvements, based on newly emerged insights in C++ are also presented.

This research aims to give information regarding the speed of mathematical calculation on windows so that people can choose an operating system which suits them without wasting their time. In this research, we need a laptop and some operating systems (windows) so that we can compare one with the other accurately. The result of this research will be noted and analysed qualitatively, quantitatively, and descriptively. It shows that running the same mathematical calculation program on different operating systems will produce a same result but different time. Index Terms - calculate the speed, operating system

Scheduling is a key concept in computer multitasking and multiprocessing operating system design, and in real-time operating system design. CPU scheduling is the basis of multiprogramming operating systems by switching the CPU among process; the operating system can make the computer more productive, scheduling algorithms are widely used in communications networks and in operating systems to allocate resources to competing tasks. In this paper, visual interfaces for CPU scheduling algorithms were designed by using Visual Basic6 language. They may use to learn users about this algorithms and how they work

Nowadays Mobile phones are becoming more popular in our daily lives. Mobile technology has a great effect on human life. Our daily tasks are dependent on mobile devices. Memory Management (MM), Security and Performance plays an important role in every handheld device specially in mobile phones, which are very much dependent on their operating system (OS). These embedded operating systems are on the driving seat when we talk about efficient and useful memory management and secure handling. Three popular OS in mobile phones are Android, Windows and iOS (iPhone OS). Each OS has its own way of managing the memory and provide it to certain number of applications. Android is an open software available for the people to modify as per their needs. But Windows and iOS operating systems didn’t allow their software as open source. Researchers have done a large amount of work using different mechanisms and decision makings to develop new ways to manage the memory of these OS’s. This work shows a comparative analysis of different memory management and security related techniques in above three operating systems. In this paper, we present the analysis of memory management and security in mobile phone operating systems with respect to apps, main memory, cache memory and virtual memory. Also, we compare the overall performance of these OS’s in terms of MM, security concerns. This study will help in finding better operating system in terms of efficient memory management and security.
