How system
software works .The operating system ( prominent examples being z/OS, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux ),
allows the parts of a computer to work together by performing tasks like transferring data between memory and disks or rendering output onto a display device. It also provides a platform to run high-level system software and application software.
A kernel is the core part of the operating system that defines an API for applications programs
(including some system software) and an interface to device drivers.
Device drivers such as computer BIOS and device firmware provide basic functionality to
operate and control the hardware connected to or built into the computer.

device and project “ interface manager ” .

The next major consumer-oriented release
of windows , windows 95 was released on
August 24 , 1995 . While still remaining MS-
DOS-based, Windows 95 introduced
support for native 32-bit applications, plug
and play hardware, preemptive
multitasking, long file names of up to 255
characters, and provided increased
stability over predecessors .
Windows 98 was almost the same of
windows 95 .
History of windows . Page - 3 The next major version of Windows,
Windows XP, was released on October 25, 2001. A change which Microsoft promised would provide better performance over its DOS-based predecessors.
After a lengthy development process, Windows Vista was released on November 30, 2006 . It contained a number of new features, from a redesigned shell and user interface to significant technical changes, with a particular focus on security features.

On July 22, 2009, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 were released as RTM (release to manufacturing) while the former was released to the public 3 months later on October 22, 2009. Unlike its predecessor, Windows Vista, which introduced a large number of new features . Windows 7 was intended to be a more focused, incremental upgrade to the Windows line, with the goal of being compatible with applications and hardware with which Windows Vista was already compatible. Windows 7 has multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows shell with an updated taskbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup and performance improvements.
Windows 8, the successor to Windows 7, was released generally on October 26, 2012. A number of significant changes were made on Windows 8, including the introduction of a user interface based around Microsoft's Metro design language with optimizations for touch-based devices such as tablets and all-in-one PCs. These changes include the Start screen, which uses large tiles that are more convenient for touch interactions and allow for the display of continually updated information, and a new class of apps which are designed primarily for use on touch-based devices. Other changes include increased integration with cloud services and other online platforms (such as social networks and Microsoft's own SkyDrive and Xbox Live services) .
Is windows the only system software ?
No .
There are more system software ‘s like linux ,
Ubuntu , apple etc .
One system software is different from other .
But all the system software have one thing
in common and that is they are all user
compatible software’s .
Linux and Ubuntu are also system software’s
but those are built in different methods .
Difference between Application and
system Software .
System Software
System software is computer software designed to operate and control the computer hardware and to provide a platform for running application software .
Application Software
Software that allows users to do things like create text documents , play games , listen to music , or web browsers to surf the web are called application software .
