UNIX

Unix or UNIX is a computer operating system that begins from the project, Multics (multiplexed Information and Computing Service) in 1965 who carried the American Telephone and Telegraph AT & T, General Electric (GE), and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), with the cost of the Department of Defense United States (Department of Defence Advenced Research Project, DARPA or ARPA), the UNIX operating system designed as a portable, multi-tasking and multi-user.

Unix operating systems are widely used both as a server or workstation. Architectural model of Unix and client / server is the most important element in the development of internet and change the computing process is centralized in the network from a single process on a computer. Linux, an operating system that was adopted from the freely available Unix and gained popularity as an alternative to proprietary operating systems like Microsoft Windows

History

In 1969, project by AT & T Multics was stopped because too late, not in accordance with the schedule, also because the distance between an expanding priset, between New Jersey and MIT Labs.

In 1969 also, Ken Thompson, a researcher who also worked on the Multics project using a computer PDP-& try to realize the idea of Multics in liaison with Dennis Ritchie, who also previously worked in the Multics project. Peter Neuman suggested using the Unix name for the new systems, the UNIX system is then rewritten for the Digital PDP-11 in one year. AT & T many scientists add capabilities on UNIX. in 1970, so that many small programs called tools in UNIX, each used to perform a function. In 1973, Unix by Ken Thompson rewritten using the new language from Ritchie C, C language is designed to be portable from one computer to be brought to other computers. In 1977, Mike Lesk develop "ported I / 0 library," library that can be taken to overcome the difficulties brought UNIX from one computer to another computer system because differences in the handling of I / 0 from any computer, Unix was first brought into the laboratory Interdata 8 / 32 , the same microcomputer with the PDP-11.
