Before we move on, let’s see if you can still remember your past lessons when you were in
Grade Nine (9).
Arrange the jumbled words to identify what is being described in the sentence. Use a
separate sheet of paper to write your answer.
1. I T N G A R O E P M E S S Y T- the software that supports a computer's basic
functions, such as scheduling tasks, executing applications, and controlling
peripherals.
2. D O S W N I W
E E R V S- is a series of enterprise-class server operating
systems designed to share services with multiple users and provide extensive
administrative control of data storage, applications and corporate networks. the
ability to handle the business
3. R E M O C U P T W R O N T E K – is a set of computers connected together for
the purpose of sharing resources.
4. R E V S R E – a computer or computer program which manages access to a centralized
resource or service in a network.

A network operating system
(NOS) is an operating system designed for
the
sole
purpose
of
supporting
workstations, database sharing, and
application sharing and file and printer
access
sharing
among
multiple
computers in a network.
Examples of Network Operating Systems:
Types of Network Operating Systems
1. Peer-to-peer network (P2P)
operating system users are allowed to
share resources and files located on their
computers and access shared resources
from others.
2. Client-server network
operating systems allow networks to
centralize functions and applications in
one or more dedicated file servers. The
server is the center of the system,
allowing access to resources and
instituting security.
Advantages and Disadvantages
ADVANTAGES
•
•
•
•
•
Centralized servers are more stable.
Security is provided through the
server.
New technology and hardware can be
easily integrated into the system.
Hardware and the operating system
can be specialized, with a focus on
performance.
Servers are able to be accessed
remotely from different locations and
types of systems.
•
•
Ease of setup
Less hardware needed, no server
need be acquired
DISADVANTAGES
•
•
•
Buying and running a server raises
costs.
Dependence on a central location for
operation.
Requires regular maintenance and
updates.
•
•
No central location for storage
Less security than the client–
server model
Directions: Complete the table. Compare and contrast Client-server computer from peer
to peer network.
Client-server network vs. Peer to peer network
