Even though, not all systems have the same structure many modern operating systems share the same goal of supporting the following types of system components.

The operating system manages many kinds of activities ranging from user programs to system programs like printer spooler, name servers, file server etc. Each of these activities is encapsulated in a process. A process includes the complete execution context (code, data, PC, registers, OS resources in use etc.).

It is important to note that a process is not a program. A process is only ONE instant of a program in execution. There are many processes can be running the same program. The five major activities of an operating system in regard to process management are:

Creation and deletion of user and system processes.

Suspension and resumption of processes.

A mechanism for process synchronization.

A mechanism for process communication.

A mechanism for deadlock handling.
