Operating System Prototype Project

This repository contains a prototype implementation of an operating system in Java. The operating system prototype provides basic functionality for memory management and process management.

Features

Memory Management

  • Memory Allocation: The operating system prototype includes mechanisms for allocating memory to processes.
  • Memory Deallocation: Processes can release memory back to the system when they no longer need it.

Process Management

  • Process Creation: The operating system supports the creation of new processes.
  • Process Termination: Processes can be terminated gracefully, releasing their allocated resources.
  • Process Scheduling: Basic process scheduling algorithms are implemented to manage the execution of processes.

Implementation

The operating system prototype is implemented in Java, utilizing object-oriented programming principles and design patterns to manage memory and processes efficiently.

Usage

To use the operating system prototype, clone the repository and run the Java program. Follow the instructions provided to interact with the operating system functionalities.

Future Enhancements

Future enhancements to the operating system prototype may include:

  • Improved Memory Management Algorithms: Implement more advanced memory management algorithms to optimize memory usage.
  • Enhanced Process Scheduling: Incorporate additional process scheduling algorithms to improve system performance.
  • Graphical User Interface: Develop a graphical user interface for easier interaction with the operating system.
