Operating systems (OS) are essential software that manage computer hardware and software resources. They provide a user interface and enable users to run applications. There are various types of operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux, each designed for specific user needs and hardware configurations. One of the more specialized categories is Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS), which are designed to process data as it comes in, typically without buffering delays. These systems are crucial in environments where timing is critical, such as in embedded systems and automotive applications.
