    2.1.1 Identify the different type of user interfaces

    Types of user interface

    1. Command interface

    • A command-line interface (CLI), also known as command-line user interface, console user interface, and character user interface (CUI), is a means of interacting with a computer program where the user (or client) issues commands to the program in the form of successive lines of text (command lines).

    2. Menu interface

    • The Menu Interface allows a plugin to add menu items and sub menus to Morays menu. It also handles mapping the IDs in your menu resource so that it doesn't conflict with either Morays menu IDs or those of other plugins.
    • The menu interface now has an easier way to setup the menu items which super cedes the somewhat cumbersome use of the Get Item Info function. 
    • The new way requires you to not implement any of the functions of this interface. The default implementation automatically builds everything it needs with the macros.

    3. Graphical user interface

    • User interacts with menus and visual images such as icons and buttons

    4. Voice-actuated interface

    • Which accept input and provide output by generating voice prompts. 
    • The user is made by pressing keys or buttons, or responding verbally to the interface.

    5. Web-form interface

    • Accept input and provide output by generating web pages which are transmitted via the internet and viewed by the user using a web browser program.

    3.1.1 Identify Between Resident And Transient Routines

    Memory Management Memory management is concerned with managing: The computer’s available pool of memory Allocating space to application routines and making sure that they do not interfere with each other. 3.1.1 Identify between resident and transient routines The operating system is a collection of software routines. Resident routines Transient routines Routines that directly support application programs as they run Stored on disk and read into memory only when needed Example: routine that control physical I/O Example: routine that formats disks The operating system occupies low memory beginning with address 0. Key control information comes first followed by the various resident operating system routines. The remaining memory, called the transient area, is where application programs and transient operating system routines are loaded. Resident & transient routines structure...

    Operating Systems Definition and the Classification of OS

                 OPERATING SYSTEMS ( OS ) What is an operating system? An operating system (sometimes abbreviated as "OS") is the program that, after being initially loaded into the computer by a boot program, manages all the other programs in a computer. The other programs are called applications or application programs. The application programs make use of the operating system by making requests for services through a defined application program interface (API). In addition, users can interact directly with the operating system through a user interface such as a command language or a graphical user interface (GUI). An operating system performs these services for applications:     In a multitasking operating system where multiple programs can be running at the same time, the operating system determines which applications should run in what order and how much time should be allowed for each application before g...

    Types of Operating System

    State four types of Operating System 1)       MICROSOFT WINDOWS Operating system designed and produced by Microsoft Corporation. Similar to other operating systems, Windows makes a computer system user-friendly by providing a graphical display and organizing information so that it can be easily accessed. The operating system utilizes icons and tools that simplify the complex operations performed by computers. Estimates suggest that 90% of personal computers use the Windows operating system. Microsoft introduced the operating system in 1985 and it has continued to be widely used despite competition from Apple's Macintosh operating system. example of windows Display of Window 8 Name Release date Release version Editions Build Windows 10 29 July 2015 NT 10.0 [1] Windows 10 Home.
