EFFICIENCY OF MODERN OPERATING SYSTEMS

Abstract

The variety of the modern multi-vendor universal and specialized operating systems (OS), designed for application in certain subject areas, poses a number of questions: which system should one choose for an automated information system, and for an automated process control system for critically important objects; and how to estimate its efficiency. At the same time, the general requirements for operating systems, the merits and demerits of various architectural schemes of the OS are known, and as for the estimation of efficiency except for vague generalities practically nothing has been proposed at this stage. In this article the concept of the OS operational efficiency is formalized and a set of indicators that can be used for choosing the OS is considered. The attention is given to operational performance that characterizes the share of computer resources spent for operating the OS. The mathematical posing of the problem of choosing the OS from a set of possible variants is given.
