    Multiprogramming Operating Systems

    • Multiprogramming operating systems allow multiple jobs to be loaded into memory, improving CPU utilization and system throughput.
    • The primary purpose of multiprogramming operating systems is to maximize CPU utilization by overlapping the execution of multiple tasks.
    • When a job enters a multiprogramming system, the operating system allocates necessary resources, and the job is placed in a job queue or ready queue, awaiting execution by the CPU.
