Textbook: Modern Operating Systems, Chapter 1 (Sections 1.6-1.8)
The goal is to map each of the general-purpose operating system features identified in the Milestone Two template to your analysis of what the feature is, why it is important, and what business-related problem such a general purpose operating system feature would create if not present in a typical small-to-medium-sized business back office.
Prompt: Using the Milestone Two Template document, or using the Profile Criteria field as sections headers to create a paper, create an analytical organizational profile that includes these critical elements:
A description of each GPOS Feature in the template using relevant technical terms and topic-related details
A description in business terms of how the absence of this GPOS feature impacts a business such as TSI
