    1. Operating Systems (OS):
    • fundamental piece of software - manages computer hardware & provides services for running applications
    • acts as an intermediary btwn computer hardware & user applications, handling tasks eg memory management, process management, file management, device management
    • eg Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.
    • provide user interface (UI) thru which users interact w/ computer thru graphical user interface (GUI) / command-line interface (CLI)
  • 2. Utilities:
    • software programs designed to perform specific tasks related to system management, maintenance, or optimization.
    • enhance functionality of operating system / perform tasks not directly handled by it
    • eg antivirus software, disk management tools, backup utilities, file compression programs, system diagnostics tools, and network utilities.
    • may be included as part of the operating system or installed separately as standalone applications.
  • 3. Systems Software:
    • broader category of both operating systems and utilities & other types of software that support the operation of computer systems.
    • any software essential for the operation of computer hardware and provides a platform for running applications.
    • In addition to operating systems and utilities, systems software may include device drivers, firmware, programming tools etc
    • plays a critical role in enabling efficient and reliable operation of computer systems & facilitating development and execution of software applications.
    • operating systems = core software that manages computer hardware and provides services for running applications
    • utilities = specialized software tools for system management & maintenance
    • systems software r both operating systems and utilities
