Time Sharing Operating System

-> Each task is given some time to execute, so that all the task work smoothly.

->Each user gets time of CPU as they use single system. these system are also known as multitasking Systems. the task can be from single user or from different users also.
       The time that each task gets to execute is called quantum.




Advantages of Time sharing OS

1. Each task gets equal opportunity.

2. Less chances of duplication of software.

3. CPU idle time can be reduced.


Disadvantages of Time sharing OS

1. Reliability problem.

2. One must have to take care of security and integrity of users program and data.

3. Data communication problem.

EX:  multics, unix etc.
