    The UNIX and Linux Operating Systems (OS) are open source systems. The first version of UNIX was created in 1969 by computer scientist Kenneth Thompson at AT&T Bell Laboratories. The system was based on four parts: the shell, kernel, editor, and the assembler. Linux was created as a free software substitute to the commercial UNIX environments. The history of Linux dates back to 1983 and Linux runs a much greater range of platforms than most UNIX environments. Both OS share a common foundation because of the history and tradition.…

    How Did Apple Change

    BSD is the Berkeley Standard Distribution. In the early 1980s, the University of California at Berkeley was a major center of focus of UNIX activity. They adapted AT&T 's System III and provided more sophisticated process management and network functionality. They distributed their version of UNIX, called the Berkeley Standard Distribution, for what amounted to the cost of goods. This, in turn, was widely adapted by academia and turned into the source material for further innovations by companies such as Sun Microsystems.(Babcock, August)…
