Chapter 9, Problem 41SG
Program Plan Intro
- The most important program that runs on a computer is operating system.
- OS is the term that acts as an interface between the hardware and the user.
- OS does basic operations such as getting input from the keyboard, displaying output in the monitor and monitoring the files.
- It is responsible for the management to co-ordinate the activities on a computer system.
- The responsibilities of OS are bound to get higher when it comes to security, because it provides the access rights for users.
Windows:
- Windows is one of the operating systems that develop new versions frequently.
- It is an aggregation of operating systems developed by Microsoft.
- It includes Graphical User Interface (GUI) that helps in displaying the required data on the desktop or monitor.
- It includes various features like hardware adaptability and interdependence, memory management, task management, access security and many others.

The command should also be placed in the history buffer as the next command. Error handling: The program should also manage basic error handling. For example, if there are no commands in the history, entering !! should result in a message “No commands in history.” Also, if there is no command corresponding to the number entered with the single !, the program should output "No such command in history."arrow_forward

UNIX Shell and History Feature [20 points] This question consists of designing a C program to serve as a shell interface that accepts user commands and then executes each command in a separate process. A shell interface gives the user a prompt, after which the next command is entered. The example below illustrates the prompt osh> and the user's next command: cat prog.c. The UNIX/Linux cat command displays the contents of the file prog.c on the terminal using the UNIX/Linux cat command and your program needs to do the same. osh> cat prog.c The above can be achieved by running your shell interface as a parent process. Every time a command is entered, you create a child process by using fork(), which then executes the user's command using one of the system calls in the exec() family (as described in Chapter 3). A C program that provides the general operations of a command-line shell can be seen below. #include #include #define MAX LINE 80 /* The maximum length command */ { int…arrow_forwardQuestion#2: Design and implement a Java program using Abstract Factory and Singleton design patterns. The program displays date and time in one of the following two formats: Format 1: Date: MM/DD/YYYY Time: HH:MM:SS Format 2: Date: DD-MM-YYYY Time: SS,MM,HH The following is how the program works. In the beginning, the program asks the user what display format that she wants. Then the program continuously asks the user to give one of the following commands, and performs the corresponding task. Note that the program gets the current date and time from the system clock (use the appropriate Java date and time operations for this). 'd' display current date 't': display current time 'q': quit the program. • In the program, there should be 2 product hierarchies: "DateObject” and “TimeObject”. Each hierarchy should have format and format2 described above. • Implement the factories as singletons. • Run your code and attach screenshots of the results. • Draw a UML class diagram for the program.arrow_forward
