نظام المحاضرات الالكترونينظام المحاضرات الالكتروني TIME SHARING It is an extension of multiprogramming. In this mode, a number of users operate online with the same CPU, but each uses a different input/output terminal. In this mode, a number of users operate online with the same CPU, but each uses a different input/output terminal. The programs of these users are placed into partitions in primary storage. The programs of these users are placed into partitions in primary storage. Execution of these programs rotates among all users, occurring so rapidly that it appears to each user as though he or she were the only using the computer.

نظام المحاضرات الالكترونينظام المحاضرات الالكتروني Machine Language The representation of a computer program which is actually read and understood by the computer. A program in machine code consists of a sequence of machine instructions. Instructions: Machine instructions are in binary code Instructions specify operations and memory cells involved in the operation Example: OperationAddress

نظام المحاضرات الالكترونينظام المحاضرات الالكتروني Assembly Language A symbolic representation of the machine language of a specific processor. Is converted to machine code by an assembler. Usually, each line of assembly code produces one machine instruction (One-to-one correspondence). Programming in assembly language is slow and error-prone but is more efficient in terms of hardware performance. Mnemonic representation of the instructions and data Example: Load Price AddTax StoreCost

نظام المحاضرات الالكترونينظام المحاضرات الالكتروني High-level language A programming language which use statements consisting of English-like keywords such as "FOR", "PRINT" or “IF“,... etc. Each statement corresponds to several machine language instructions (one-to-many correspondence). Much easier to program than in assembly language. Data are referenced using descriptive names Operations can be described using familiar symbols Example: Cost := Price + Tax
