Multi- tasking: A user can execute multiple programs at the same time from a single terminal. Time sharing: The operating system shares CPU time among tasks. Portability: It is highly portable across hardware. Modularity: It allows only needed modules to be loaded into the memory. File structure: It has an inverted tree like file structure, with files and directories created within the file structure. Security: All files can be individually protected using read, write, and execute permissions for the user, group, and others. Network support: It uses the TCP/IP protocol.
