Google Chrome Operating System , Seminar Reports | PPT | PDF | DOC | Presentation |





Google Chrome OS is a Linux operating system designed by Google to work exclusively with web applications. It is intended to focus on Web applications while running a fast and simple interface, based off Google's existing Chrome browser. Google announced the operating system on July 7, 2009 and made it an open source project, called Chromium OS, that November.

Unlike Chromium OS, which can be compiled from the downloaded source code, Chrome OS will only ship on specific hardware from Google's manufacturing partners.  The user interface takes a minimalist approach, resembling that of the Chrome web browser. Because Google Chrome OS is aimed at users who spend most of their computer time on the Internet, the only application on the device will be a browser incorporating a media player.


Google Chrome OS is initially intended for secondary devices like netbooks, not as a user's primary PC, and will run on hardware incorporating an x86 or ARM-based processor. Chrome OS as a "hardened" operating system featuring auto-updating and sandbox features that will reduce malware exposure. Google claimed that Chrome OS would be the most secure consumer operating system due in part to a verified boot capability, in which the initial boot code, stored in read-only memory, checks for system compromises.

Companies working with Google to develop hardware for the operating system include Acer, Adobe, Asus, Freescale, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Toshiba, Intel, Samsung, and Dell.

This Seminar on “Google Chrome Operating System” discusses the features, capabilities and functioning of the Google Chrome Operating System, along with its divergence from a typical Operating System covering its expected advantages and setbacks.  

        The new operating system, aptly named Google Chrome OS, will be a Linux-based, open-source operating system initially geared toward netbooks. The Chrome OS, originally planned for release in the second half of 2010 and currently slated for release in early 2011, is mostly just the Chrome browser running on top of a very lightweight Linux base.   It is intended to focus on Web applications while running a fast and simple interface, based off Google's existing Chrome browser.   Speed, simplicity and security are the key aspects of Google Chrome OS.


        Quite suitably, this Seminar involves major discussions on how it is a concept for a very portable and low cost "cloud" terminal.   This also explains how and why the operating system is the browser and how it behaves like a browser, in the case of this unique Operating System.
