Question

What kinds of operating systems are used in the devices that you own? On your personal computer? Your mobile phone? The set-top box on top of your television? Are there other operating systems that you come into contact with? If you can't tell which operating system is in each of these devices, see if you can search the Internet to find out. For each of these devices (to the extent that you can), diagram the hardware/software "layer cake” (Please see Section 1.1 and Figure 13.1 for explanation). You should have as many layer cakes as you have devices. Please make sure you answer all the parts.
