The word operating system is not new to any computer literate. We all start our day with
Windows and end by talking about Linux. We always argue about the performance
and efficiency of one over other. Each of this is having its own limitation.
Windows is a very good operating system used in almost every personal computer
in this world. Whereas Linux is a great open source operating system which is
totally free and is used in almost all web servers. Windows is nice but not free
and Linux is free and open source but difficult to use.
The main power of Linux is C language as it is totally developed in it, but the
limitation of C language will definitely affect it too. Since last 30 years
Linux is being developed and modified from its old variant UNIX, but now it is
reaching to its limit. The size of the codes has increase so much that one
global data created in wrong file can crash whole Linux. The day is not far when
it will be impossible to add a single line of code without avoiding any
So is this an end to a great free, open source operating system? There is always
something new when something ends. TAJ OS may be an answer. It is a first
operating system developed in India which is totally based on object oriented
concept. C++ is the first thing that comes to mind when we hear the word object
oriented. And yes, TAJ OS is totally developed in C++, which removes all
drawbacks of C language.
The code of TAJ operating system is well maintained by dividing it in different modules (class
concept). All the data are highly secured by making them private and removing
any chances of unauthorized access. The main heart of this operating system know
as Kernel is a Monolithic type, i.e. all devices drivers and
supporting file are packed in one unit with kernel which greatly reduces the
chances of crashes. The operating system is built in such a way that sudden
power failure and other hardware problems will also not corrupt the system.
