Unit 1: OPERATING SYSTEM

1.3.6 Multiprogramming:

• Many programs are loaded in memory but the CPU only executes one program at a time.
• The advantage of multiprogramming is that it saves the user’s time in loading the program to the main memory and runs the program quickly.
• The only drawback is, that the system requires more memory as it is occupied by many programs.
• Some bigger programs cannot load fully in memory and thus programs run slowly.

Multiprocessing:

• It is the ability of an OS to execute more than one process on a multi-processor machine at the same time.
